Ok just some clarification (last time and I will update the wiki and
don't want to get it wrong :-)
If we take the current state where we have a released 10.0 and 10.1 in alpha.
1. All fixes/updates in upstream packages are evaluated and applied to
the EDGE stream.
2. Security fixes that are severe (like Firefox 1.07) are also applied
to released 10.0 and published as an update.
a) Is there any guideline on the selection criteria (or does
'severe' sum it up?)
b) For how long are severe security fixes applied to Released? 6
months until the next GM release?
