All, One of the things I have noticed with the move to git is how easy it can be to back-port commits. If there are no conflicts, a series of patches can be back-ported with a few clicks. However, conflicts significantly slow this process down. I'd like to improve that.
The short version of the plan is: Align all three current code bases where it makes sense to do so. The longer version of the plan is to tackle this over the medium to long term with a combination of aligning files before making changes and back-porting larger sets of changes. There are a number of larger changes responsible for a reasonable chunk of the differences. One of those is the switch to UTF-8 in the LocalString*.properties files. I am therefore planning to back-port this change to 8.5.x and 7.0.x. I'm currently undecided what to do about the additional language support. I will try and back-port the i18n improvements (mainly additional i18n of messages).
