Yes it is, especially nowadays : we have commited massive
changes to the trunk these last days

As noted in OFBIZ-811 this has been commited in trunk
r669994
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=669994.
You would have
to do the work by your self either on R4 or using this
release. If you fiund bugs, there are chances that patches
have been commited
since. So you would have to commit them from this release
at least.

It's not really a manpower issue. The release is a branch from the trunk, and it was done almost two years ago. The release
receives bug fixes but not new features - so naturally there will be large differences between the release and the trunk as time
passes.
I was speaking about the 1,5 years gap between trunk and release...
