I'm using 1.3 in production and there's a bugfix I really want, so I do the backport (and write the code, tests, docs). If I submit this to the issue tracker, is there a chance my patch will get into the next minor release, or you won't even consider it?
Even with an accepted (or even ready-for-checkin) ticket containing all what's needed committers have some non-trivial amount of work to do. As I understand intention of the new policy it's this work that they want to decrease.
In such situation at my company we just patch our internal Django package. In fact we often patch an immediate problem locally first and only then bring the patch to discussion upstream. Much less pressure for everyone. I think you should either live with official stable releases or be ready to maintain your own if you choose to live on trunk.
