## Backports
Puma does not have a backport "policy" - maintainers will not consistently backport bugfixes to previous minor or major versions (we do treat security differently, see [`SECURITY.md`](Security.md).
As a contributor, you may make pull requests against `-stable` branches to backport fixes, and maintainers will release them once they're merged. For example, if you'd like to make a backport for 4.3.x, you can make a pull request against `4-3-stable`. If there is no appropriate branch for the release you'd like to backport against, please just open an issue and we'll make one for you.
