- Every 3 months instead of every 6?
⇒ Wasn't discussed.
- What workflow changes does this include?
⇒ The workflow should probably stay the same, i.e. normal commits go directly to themasterbranch, bigger changes require a separate branch. Themasterbranch needs to be kept releasable.
Backporting
⇒ The author of a patch should be responsible for porting it back to 1.10.
Discussion whether to port or not should happen underneath of each related issue report.
Firebug.next
⇒ Anything else needs to be discussed next time.
