For the 2nd point, note how I am always always lambasted for fixing a bug I haven't reproduced, and often for good reason (I deal with many stable production forks). Sometimes I catch bugs just by looking at source codes.

Be careful when applying patches to stable releases. Always be sure it won't 
destabilize the release.

This holds true for any non-bug fixes, not just for security-related non-bug 
fixes.

Hi,

This is the official vote thread about security issues and fixes in releases

My proposition is to make a vote on 2 points

Please vote for each points
[+1] Yes
[+0] I'm fine either way
[-1] No

1. Do you vote for commiting the patch input-with-password.patch from Jira 
issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1106 in
release4.0 (please see thread <<release4.0: OFBIZ-1106 (in or out?)>> in dev ML 
for history) ?

2. Do you vote for, in general, commiting security fixes in releases ?

Other examples of other security issues may be found from here :
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-178

Thanks

Jacques
