How far is DRUPAL-4-6 maintained?
Hello, How far is DRUPAL-4-6 maintained? (Disclaimer: I use 4.7 for all my sites, so I have no specific interest in earlier versions). I am asking because I noticed a few things and I am curious. I don't imply anything (especially, I am not blaming anyone for anything!). Here: http://drupal.org/project/issues?projects=3060&versions=11555,11262,10237,97... we have 5 critical bugs relevant to the 4-6 branch only (those critical issues have been fixed for 4.7 and cvs). 3 out of 5 have a patch already. Here: http://drupal.org/project/issues?projects=3060&states=14 we have altogether only 6 RTBC patches, which shows that the four core-commiters are doing their jobs :) What I notice, though is that 3 of them are patches for the 4-6 branch that have been sitting there for weeks. My guess is that they went below the commiters' radar because they are not cvs or 4.7 patches (but I may be wrong). Lastly, what is the policy for bugs that have been fixed in 4.7 and cvs but not in 4.6? (example: http://drupal.org/node/69027 ). Can the issue be closed straight away, or should the issue be marked for the 4.6 branch? Above, I said that Dries, Steve, Killes and Drumm are doing their job magnificently because there are only 6 RTBC patches. We cannot say the same of myself and the rest of the community: http://drupal.org/project/issues?projects=3060&states=8 There are 246 issues with a patch needing review. Often a proper review is what is missing to make those RTBC. Thank you to all who contribute, one way or another :) Augustin. -- http://www.wechange.org/ Because we and the world need to change. http://www.reuniting.info/ Intimate Relationships, peace and harmony in the couple.
