Thanks for the email link Greg. Yeah, the submitted changes in question from project A were filter updates, and we do specifically state in that email that filter updates are allowed in a stable branch. It was kindof an odd situation. The updates merely added css classes to a few of the htm

I know for sure that Fedora (a few F11+ i think) Debian (squeeze+) and Ubuntu (well Karmic+ if you consider PPA or Lucid+ from main archive) are all patched. This is way to small for a bugfix release (I'd rather see more personally). This issue was not present a the time sword 1.6.1 was released,

Understood going forward. There were a few factors which made this a slightly non-standard situation. First, this wasn't exactly a bug fix. It was a workaround for a bug in a version of libcurl. I was hoping libcurl would be patched. And no, I personally didn't report the issue to the cur

Hi Karl, branching is not a pain for this kind of purpose. Just branch off the repository state of 1.5.1 (I guess there is a tag available), apply the one-liner, and release a 1.5.1.1. A bugfix release. That should have been the answer to the problems at hand, not a patch. mg Am 14.09.10 11:58,
