Is there any reason why the current stable version of the longterm 3.10.y branch isn't used as a base? Because I've run into a problem with 3.10.17 which was fixed with v3.10.22 (december last year) I've recently rebased those 1200+ patches myself on top of 3.10.52, without any problems (took me around 15 minutes to solve 3 conflicts, testing excluded). So merging the current stable version of 3.10.y, if prefered, should be equally easy. My understanding of the stable trees is that they are especially used to provide security fixes (besides bugfixes). So I don't really understand why about 20 minor releases of maybe import fixes are ignored. Regards, Alexander Holler
