     8''Q: Should developers do it themselves? Or ask another dev to do it to keep some review sanity?''
     9
     10A: It depends: preferably a developer should be able to backport him/herself but
     11 * do not break the release branch
     12 * make tests
     13 * only fix bugs, do not introduce new features
     14
     15If the latter is unclear, it should be discussed on the developers list. '''If in doubt, ask!'''
     16In this case, a path/diff is appreciated.
