Hi,

Like Roland stated, updates and enhancements are limited to the next version to be released, bug fixes go there too and are back ported.
A very quick look at your committed changes seem to suggest to me these are bug fixes, the merger should have picked up on these.
These would have to be revisited for consideration to back porting, IMHO.

Hi

Changes to master (which would happen the past months) will result in the code being in 3.2 (about to be released beginning next year).

3.0.x will just receive bugfix release

kind regards
Roland

Good day all,

I had the pleasure of providing some updates to a couple protocol dissectors last month. I was under the impression that cherry picked code into the master meant that the changes would be delivered in the next release but that does not appear to be the case. May you please help me understand how long it takes for code to be included in the stable release? Is there a “baking” period?

Thanks,

Anthony Crawford
