The integration team will process backport requests, with the following guidelines:

1. The integration team will together consider each request individually considering the needs of the community (influenced by forum posts, moodle partners, discussion with developers via tracker or private message, etc).

So, even if the fix you are back-porting cherry-picks cleanly, you will need to amend the commit comment to use the new MDL-XXXXX number.
