Depends on the quality and quantity, whether it fixes a security issue, 
introduces a
new must have feature, etc.

I would happily vote +1 for a one line security fix. Context is everything.

Do not criticise me for making a vote statement.

It was not a contribution, it was a statement regarding the vote, which anyone 
is
entitled to do.

Of course, but am I not entitled to express my vote and supporting statement, or
are all votes expected to be +1 with no comments.

What do you base your vote on exactly?

Rolling a new release for a few lines of code that fixes a couple of bugs and 
does not
introduce any new functionality is overkill IMHO.

But I will stay out of such votes/threads/opinions in the future , do what I 
joined this
list for, then leave when I'm done.
