Right, we rarely backport changes to support a new platform in stable branch. Example of exception: we backported changes to support OpenSSL 1.1.x, but it's not exactly a "platform" :-) > As to supporting AIX - I obviously, cannot promise 24x7 support - only > best effort for as long as I am able.

Nobody is available 24x7 :-) Don't worry, we will bug you as soon as it turns red again by email and you can reply whenever you want or ignore such bug :-) > And, in that line - if possible, you may add my email address to the > mails the AIX bots send.

I don't understand which change you are proposing. Maybe open a bug report. Victor -- Night gathers, and now my watch begins.
