That requires the module underneath to be re-based on top of the Apache code; which can be more or less difficult to do depending on your luck, how patch sets intersect and so on. That fundamental work is ongoing on master; we can do this in certain specific cases on the 3.6 branch as well, 3.5 is out of the question I'm afraid. So - if we can independently fix the bug in a different way, that is the easiest outcome for now. Going forward, once all possible files have been re-based on the ALv2 code; then we need to work through all the bug reports and mass import any fixes that are not problematic / don't already conflict. There is a mapping in contrib/gitdm-config/aliases that unwinds authorship to real E-mails at least nominally - sadly little attempt is made to make it easy to preserve true authorship information by svn itself so ... there will be more imprecision and/or foot-work needed there. The punch-line: for now, it'd be nice to re-implement small fixes. If you have a list of larger ones we want, then build a list and send it to me & I'll see what we can do for 3.6. When we hit 3.7 there should be ~zero licensing barrier to forward-porting any fix we like, and we'll start doing that in a systematic way. Does that make sense ? :-) Thanks !
