 I am glad you are bringing these things up, it helps me revisit my own
 processes and help me improve.

 We are planning on revising the maintenance guidelines soon so I hope to
 get your input.

Like I said before, I don't recall the thought process when that series
was put together.

That is what I do for meta-openembedded and then I send a pull request.

You were requesting input.

I am not using boost on Yocto, but in Debian it is pretty normal
that several packages stop building each time boost gets updated.

"Drop signals library as upstream has removed it" in the backported
commit shows the tip of this iceberg.

What went wrong that even the removal of a library from boost
did not prevent this change from entering a stable branch?

One problem is that changes to master are getting better reviewed than 
changes to stable branches.

Upgrading boost in a stable branch wouldn't have survived a mailing
list review.

A possible improvement would be to always use thud-next, and each time 
commits are added to thud-next an email thread with all new commits gets 
sent to the mailing list (similar to the review threads for new upstream 
stable kernels, see [1] for an example).

That series did not, the previous ones and several Sumo request have.

So you are the second person to mention the update, is it causing a
problem?

That is not under the "Maintainers procedure" so it does not apply.

I have taken requests via IRC and a simple "please add this to stable
branch X" emails so I have not been enforcing the letter of the law. 


Now what does apply to me is under "Maintainer Procedure".

I have never done steps 6,7 and 8. RP has scripts the does the splitting
into the separate repos. Doing those steps adds more overhead to the
maintenance process as the AB builds require "Poky". 

Like I have mentioned already, the processes mentioned in
"Stable_branch_maintenance" are under review.

Was the boost upgrade in thud sent to the mailing list for review?

My reading of the "Requesting a fix in a stable branch" section 
would be that this is already a mandatory part of the process.

For completeness:

As always, the stable branch maintainers' judgement is important when it
comes to deciding which fixes are or are not appropriate. If there is
doubt, feel free to consult with the overall project maintainer (Richard
Purdie ).

Just for the record:

1. In [1] I read at policies:

* No recipe upgrades unless:
  * The old version is completely broken
  * The new version contains a security patch or other critical bugfix
that is too difficult to backport to the version already in the stable
branch

2. This was applied on Feb 6th which is not 3 month back exactly.

Nope the process does not say that. I will update recipes when they
bugfix updates.  I have been doing that for years. In fact, you should

Don't recall the thought process on a given backport especial when its 3
