Hi,
Like that other decision - that was a bit hard to find (you helped me
find it in QEP 239) - I don't know exactly where the quarantine rule
originated. I am pretty sure there was discussion.
Nyall: can you please share some background when and why it was
introduced and if this decision can be found in some QEP or PSC
decision?
Note that I am not questioning the quarantine rule - I think it makes
sense - but I want to discuss the combination of the quarantine rule
with the thinned out release cycle - and how we can improve things in
this respect.
Thank you all for the discussion,
Andreas

However, the situation is, that there is also a "quarantine rule" -
which
is not mentioned in QEP 239 - but it helps to prevent untested patches

end up in LTR versions, by delaying the backports until the backport
was
first tested in the non-LTR stable release.
Where is that quarantine rule? Is it tied into the backport bot?
In the good old days I'd apply my fixes to master also to the release
branches,
once the showed to work in master and didn't produce additional
complains from
users of the nightlies. And that ideally not shortly before the
release so
people could still try the release nightlies.
