Make the modifications and then push it to master or 1.8, add the tag [BACKPORT] to your pull request

OK got it.

Is there a central place we can request for back-porting of specific
features/bugfixes to 1.8 ?

Regards,
Etienne

No because master is already far beyond the existing 1.8 branch and breaks
the 1.x API

Would it make sense marking the master branch as 1.8 instead of having
to backport many things?

hi!
It seems that 1.8 will overrule the 1.7 branch ..
As 1.8 prepares the way for 2.0 and has much more features than 1.7
and it seems that 1.8 will be here in about a month (and will also
stay a lot longer than 1.7) it seems better to concentrate on
releasing 1.8 (I know there are still bugs in 1.7) ..
As Paolo already said we lack in manpower to prepare 3 different
branches (1.7, 1.8 and master).
So please wait a little more for the Lyon HF - it seems that 1.8 is on
its way ..

After 1.8 release we will collect (and hopefully clean the bugtracker)
new backport bugs for 1.8

kind regards
Werner

Agreed.

I know I'm boring, but backporting requires some manpower we have
difficulties
allocating now. Please consider helping directly with it, or sponsoring
it.
I agree, it would be really good. We just discovered the road graph
plugin is
non-functional, for instance.
All the best.
