Thanks Neil!
Looks like document I've been searched for... and haven't found.

Victor,
You might find last years Ramp Down plan helpful as well. The
same general plan will be in place for Mars release, but it covers
the basics that Carl described.

Thanks for explanation and historical references :)
I'd rather save your answer handy.

Victor,
The info you are looking
for is on https://wiki.eclipse.org/WTP_PMC_Defect_Review . The main issue is that any bug
that has impact outside of WTP needs PMC approval after
M6. That includes new features, API changes (not
internal... public API), and any UI changes that effect
the translatable files. Those changes need to be approved
first by the project lead (or his delegate), and then by
the PMC, adding in whatever verbiage is necessary for the
PMC to understand what they are approving. (Way back
when, after RC1, some foolish WTP developer asked for PMC
approval on a behavior change. The PMC thought it was
just a bug fix and approved. Things got ugly when it
affected an adopter of WTP. So our process was changed to
make it clear that the PMC approval is for a specific
reason in those cases. And that foolish developer? Well,
he went on to become the WTP Releng project lead, and a
member of the WTP PMC!)
If all you are doing is
fixing bugs that do not have an external effect, then PMC
approval is not needed until RC1 is declared.
FWIW,

---03/26/2015 01:44:23 PM---Hi, I have a number of bug
fixes to merge into JSDT master for Mars stream,
From: "Victor V. Rubezhny" <vrubezhny@xxxxxxxxxx>
To: "General discussion of
project-wide or architectural issues." <wtp-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Subject: [wtp-dev] Is PMC approval
required for non-UI bugs to merge after M6 is released?
Sent by: wtp-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx
Hi,
I have a number of bug fixes to merge into JSDT master for
Mars stream,
but I'm a bit "lost in translations"...
Once upon a time I read a doc (probably on wiki) that
regulate the
possibility of pushing the code into master depending on
the stage of a
project (When a PMC Approval is required for UI/Non-UI
issues and so
on). It looks like I've lost the URL to that document and
cannot find it
for some reason. Could anybody please send a link to such
a document if
it really exists?
Am I correct in that I don't need a PMC Approval for
non-UI fixes and I
can deliver these fixes even after M6 is declared (but
before the
declaration of M7?)?
The fixes I'd like to include into JSDT Mars stream are:
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=387850 - Update to Rhino
1.7R4
- https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=453700 - Incorrect
parentheses clean up in JS files
- probably few fixes provided by Gerrit contributions (I'm
reviewing
some fixes for Sonar FindBug issues at the moment)
All these fixes make no harm for UI, so they don't require
to change
translations, docs and so on.
And a minor question on Bug# 453700: This bug is included
into the
"Great Fixes for Mars" competition, but suddenly I've
fixed it by
myself... So, what should I do with it: wait for a
possible fix from
competitors until the competition is finished (May 6,
2015) or push my
fix and cancel the issue from a competition (probably to
replace it with
another issue)?
Thanks in advance,
Victor Rubezhny,
JSDT
