Hello again, Not properly stated in my previous message, the backport PR I initially made was closed as the two issues it included were not satisfying. - [JENKINS-76075] Optimise LogRotator working in weak BuildReference mode <https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-76075> - [JENKINS-16341] Memory leak in createJavaScriptProxy <https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-16341>
I was about to proceed with a LTS 2.528.2 without any change appart from the implicit dependency updates coming with the controller image build, but after discussing it in #jenkinsci/release gitter channel, it appears that we've never had an LTS release with no changes over its LTS predecessor. (Thread in #jenkinsci/release: https://matrix.to/#/!JlkqzpdEnsUUuVtjgE:matrix.org/$X--9DQdiaSmnS86d9KnT3xiYgyLRLLW1fxoYOYOTC3k?via=gitter.im&via=matrix.org ) I'm been suggested to pick issues to backport from the recent weekly releases changelogs, because simply skipping the release may also be confusing to users. As Mark is absent, as it's the first time I'm tasked with identifying relevant changes to backport, and as the RC is planned for tomorrow, I'd really appreciate some help and assistance. *Weekly changelogs since 2.528:* -
