4.7 maintenance: Change in policy
Hi there, up to fairly recently I have reviewed all patches that were applied to HEAD if they might be needed for 4.7 too. Due to the large number of patches being committed to HEAD that are mostly HEAD specific I won't do this anymore. If you supplied a patch that was applied to HEAD and you think it should be committed to 4.7 as well, please recategorize the patch as "ready to be committed" for the 4.7 version after it was committed to HEAD. If you submit a patch for a bug found in 4.7 and HEAD, please file it against CVS instead of 4.7. This will ensure it gets more attention. Finally, there are a number of pending patches, it would be nice if people could review/ work on them: http://drupal.org/project/issues?projects=3060&states=8,13,14&versions=10696... Cheers, Gerhard
Hi, does that also include feature patches like integration of jQuery? Regards, Konstantin

There will no features added to 4.7, so the 4.7 jquery patch is kind of pointless. The authors of the patch know this and provide it only for others who wish to patch their Drupal install. I only leave it in the queue since it wouldn't be found otherwise. Cheers, Gerhard

It's not pointless, it's just currently the only way we have of collaborating around backported patches, unless we actually create a project for it. -- Boris Mann

I'll help with the re-categorization. :) -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
