Officially, at the moment we only do: Backport to 1.9 when there's something to backport, backport to 1.8 when it's super serious and you feel like it. :) I think we should drop 1.8, and maybe come up with an LTS model, so people will have LTS releases they can count on. No idea though, as I personally prefer bleeding edge. -- Tom. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subversion Kills Productivity.
