Has someone asked Tiny already to let the community commit their fixes
into the so called "stable" which is actually un-stable?
Just to legitimate that we have no other choice then to branch to a new
community bugfix-release.
I'm a little bit worried about the consequences it could have, like that
we could slowly walk away from the "stable" branch and couldn't merge
back again. Referring to the problem Tiny itself had 3 months ago to
merge the stable back into trunk.

My personal experience with Tiny is more of the sense that even if you
fix it yourself (and after peer community review) it's still a hassle
to get it accepted as Tiny indeed does have the right to not accept a
certain fix, but the problem now is that when they decide it's not
good enough other people might still feel ok with using that certain
fix instead of living with the bug.
As the situation is today you would have to look into 6 or more
community branches and combine them yourselves.
This is what my "bugfix" community branch proposal should fix. One
place for all community fixes to be properly integrated and tested.
The idea is to create a very attractive branch for Tiny to go pick
solutions from, so they can cherrypick and integrate it into their
"stable" version at their leisure.
If they neglect to backport fixes from the bugfix to the stable branch
people will then more and more rely on the bugfix branch and the
darwinian process should emerge then.
