Just because bugs are closed in the 4.7 tree doesn't mean they're closed in the 4.6 tree, and 4.6 still needs to be supported, until 4.8 is released.
As far as I am aware, all non-security/standards related issues for the 4.6/4.5 branch can be closed if they have been fixed in HEAD.
That is our current policy, indeed. For 4.7 we will maintain the branch to more extend, ie I will apply patches for non-critical bugs (but no new features). Cheers, Gerhard
