No, this isn't related to bug tracking, only for merging known fixes to the 1.6 branch. The 1.6 branch is supposed to get only known good patches cherry-picked from the master branch, so any bugs found in the 1.6 branch should be re-checked with the master branch, fixed there and then nominated for a 1.6 minor release. Most (all?) of the fixes nominated for the 1.6 branch were initially bugs reported against master, fixed there and then cherry-picked to the 1.6 branch; you'll see notes on the wiki indicating which bugs are being fixed by each patch. Using the wiki page lets me collect a bunch of suitable fixes and then cut a minor release without missing anything. I've found it easier to manage than a bugzilla tracking bug, especially as it leaves a very clear history through the whole process. -- [email protected]
