For upcoming patch releases any "must-fix" will be tagged with the "GG-must-fix" label in Jira.
If there is a defect you think should be considered a must fix for an upcoming patch release either
a) Create change on the guppy branch in gerrit. This can either be a guppy specific
   fix or a fix that was also merged onto master.
b) Indicate a change is required for Guppy in Jira. Please create a JIRA issue to cherry pick
   the fix onto the guppy branch and assign it to Jan-Simon Möller for consideration.



Best regards,
Jan-Simon Möller
