+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; This even counts if the packager is the one with the initiative to
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; do the backport ? I mean, if I regularly update my packages and
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; also want to up backport them, now I'll also would have to create
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; a bug report each time I want to do a backport of my own packages
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; ?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Yes, we really want to provide supported backports, and that means
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; there must be testing. Creating a bug report doesn't take more time
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; than testing the backport in Mageia 1, so I don't think this will be
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; a big overhead, apart for packagers who don't test their backports
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; themselves.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; To summarize :
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; - you are free to submit in backports_testing (so in a certain way the
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; package is available in Mageia 1 directly)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> We also need to remember that some backports available in
+</I>&gt;<i> backports_testing can also affect others packages (like some library
+</I>&gt;<i> update ).
+</I>
+Yes, I should have said &quot;free to submit, as long as you follow the policy&quot;
+(and libs are outside the policy, unless ALL packages depending on the given
+lib are backported too and dependencies are done right).
