Gave assistance to it's release maintainer.

Released version 20.11.08

Backport list: 2

  • Bug 28523 - Patrons with the most checkouts (bor_issues_top.pl) is failing with MySQL 8

Release maintenance of 20.05.x branch

Released version 20.05.14

Backport list: 4

  • Bug 28586 - Cannot resolve a claim
  • Bug 28476 - Update info in docs/teams.yaml file
  • Bug 28523 - Patrons with the most checkouts (bor_issues_top.pl) is failing with MySQL 8
  • Bug 28524 - Most-circulated items (cat_issues_top.pl) is failing with MySQL 8

Minor stuff

Patchsets analyzed but not backported: 15

This plus the backported patches gives and idea of the stream of patches to process.

Not backported due to one of the following:

  • severity too low considering this is the oldoldstable branch of Koha, quick analysis
  • missing dependencies/not affecting my branch
  • not enough benefits compared to the risks of regression

QA

Notes:

  • An attempt results in feedback provided on the bug. To ask if I correctly followed the test plan due to results that I couldn't interpret. Or if there is indeed an issue.
  • Partial QA is a way to contribute to a ticket that I can't QA alone but for which I can apply the test plan and run the QA script. Leaving the functional or code review for someone knowing that area.
