Right. I wasn't sure if there were 10 issues to backport or 150. If there are only a few isolated fixes to apply, then I'd be comfortable with just applying them, testing and releasing. If there are a ton of fixes, which might have overlapping effects, then lets spend a day or so with a tagged rc and have everybody test the same finished product before we ship it.
