Sorry for the maybe stupid question. Do I understand this correctly: You commit the changes to the main branch (aka. Apache 2.1) and Bill Stoddard backports them to the Apache 2.0 branch. So the fixes for 21492 and 30278 will be part of 2.0.53 if Bill finds time to backport them to the the Apache 2.0 branch before 2.0.53 is released?
Well the process is not quite so structured by design, but yes, I plan to propose we backport these into 2.0 (in time for 2.0.53) and I'll do the backport as I have time (maybe later this week).
Haha. Well, it requires three developers to approve a change for backporting. And, Bill has been excellent in driving these changes to be backported. I usually prefer to wait until I know that he or someone else confirms the commits work for them and don't do anything stupid before it even gets proposed. And, then another developer needs to sign off first...
You can help by testing Justin's patch and providing feedback to this list.
Absolutely! Thanks! -- justin
