LTS issue tracking?

[Les Mikesell]

This page:
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/LTS+Release+Line
describes the process of releasing an LTS version and that some bug
fixes may be backported from newer versions. Would it be possible
for whoever is doing this vetting to also publish the list of
issues/changes that do not have the fix backported? This might
include things that were not known at the release of that version
number or included in its changelog but would have been reported as
issues against it. It is rather tedious to find and understand this
information and if someone is already going through it to find the
fixes that can/should be backported perhaps they could summarize for
the rest of us.

You mean including issues that were never nominated for backporting? And issues that are now reported against 1.606, where we would need to figure out first whether the LTS 1.596.x is affected at all?

I mean the now-known issues that affect the current/pending LTS
release - or will affect the people who install it. And yes, someone
needs to figure out when the issues reported against the current HEAD
version were introduced. I was hoping that was already happening as
fixes were considered for backporting and a summary would save
everyone else the trouble of figuring this out.
