I opened up an issue for 10.8 backporting. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5923
It actually looks like folks have been proactively backporting to 10.8 so only I am only seeing five issues in need of backport. Other fixes were not appropriate for backport have been marked with derby_backport_reject_10.8 Add any that I may have missed to that issue if any look inappropriate for 10.8.
Protocol for backporting is as before. Linked issues have been reopened. Folks doing merges can assign them selves and put in a comment to claim the issue. Then resolve and reassign after the backport is complete or label derby_backport_reject_10.x as appropriate.
