Yeah, thats one of the reasons I am skeptical about having official
policies on this type of thing.

I see this as an excellent reason to draw a bright, sharp line between
what vendors support and what the community as a whole does,
especially where individual community members wear another hat.

So, if Sun, SRA, Pervasive, Command Prompt, etc were to submit a patch for v7.2, we'd refuse it? I think not ...

Will we accept/fix a bug report *for* v7.2, that is different ...
