Hi everyone,
I just committed a big typos fix to trunk (r8925), should changes
like this be backported to the maintenance branch?
best,

Big thank you for correcting those typos where virtually all of them are mine.
I'm +1 for backporting these changes as they will not break anything.
But others may have different ideas.

I'm roughly neutral; I would only caution that when backporting, one needs to tell svnmerge about it. Something like:
svnmerge merge -S v1 -r NUM --record-only
svn commit -F svnmerge-commit-message.txt
where you are in your trunk checkout, and NUM is the revision in which you did the backporting.

My vote is to backport those fixes. This way, distro maintainers can release a patch for the docs if they wish, and anyone else checking out the maintenance releases would get those fixes for their docs. I personally have a few fellow students who I set them up with matplotlib built from the maintenance branch.
Also, if – and this is a big if – we decide to release another bugfix release, the docs will be ready to go.

P.S. - Good to know that is how to do a backport using svnmerge. Maybe we should add that to the coding guide? (Obviously, we would want major notes pointing out that the preferred procedure is to commit to the maintenance branch and then svnmerge to the maintenance branch.)
