I agree too with Adrian and Tim. All changes affect backporting
changes. Some more than others for sure... but maybe if we're lucky
some of these changes will get back into the release branch(es) along
with a bug fix later on.
About the next release... we're about six months past our last release
branch. If we do one in another 2 years we're 18 months away from the
next release. If we shorten that to 1 year between release branches
we're still 6 months away from the next one.
