Pulling this out as a proposal: I propose that we track all backports in 2.4 STATUS as we currently do. Each backport is time-tagged and we operate under a lazy consensus. Assuming no -1 votes within 96 hours, the backport can be applied to 2.4.x. If the backport gets 3 +1 votes sooner than that, then it can be applied asap...
As with ALL patches, any commit can be reverted for good technical (or legal) reasons. [ ] +1: Agree with this proposal (to start post 2.4.5 release) [ ] -1: Disagree with this proposal (and why)
