I forgot to mention about the tagging/counting policy change. The
stable-rt maintainers have decided to use the same tagging/counting
strategy for all the stable-rt trees. If there is no merge conflict the
latest stable release is merged and tagged. All intermediates merge
commit and tag is not done anymore unless there is a conflict. The
conflict will be resolved and a merge commit with tag will be applied.

Thanks,
