Hi! Moving this out of other topics into its own: according to the release RFC, we should have 5.4 have 2 years of bugfixes & one year of security fixes. Since 5.4 was released in March 2012, we're already past 2 year mark. However, we're still have some bugfixes in 5.4, so I'd like to do this:
- 5.4.32 is released as planned this week, nothing changes there. - 5.4 branch that is to be 5.4.33 will be the last release that has any non-security bugfixes. We hope that by the time 5.4.33 is out 5.6.0 is out too, so that would play nice with the "two stable branches, one security branch" theme. Starting from that release forward, 5.4 would be purely security fixes only branch. - EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, we do not accept new non-security bugfixes into 5.4 branch unless they are very important ones (and that is only because people may, in theory, have pending patches and we didn't give advance notice). Importance would have to be determined somewhat arbitrarily, but basically if it works without it, then it's not in, if there's serious doubt if it should be in, it's not in, etc. Security issues, of course, still allowed in. This means if somebody has some pending non-security fixes that have to be in 5.4, the following two weeks are the last call, provided that the fixes really must be in 5.4.
