Nice work, Mark. I've read the doc and added a link that I think may
provide clarity.

Two things that are missing for me:

I can read how to indicate that I'd like to see something backported, but
there is no way for me to find out when to expect a decision on if this
will actually happen. Would it be possible to commit to a "will be
reviewed within" time for "bugzilla issues with a merged patch in Gerrit
that are marked as resolved fixed with the 'Backport_stable?' flag set'?

Secondly: Does this process only apply to MediaWiki core, or also to
MediaWiki extensions that are tracked in Bugzilla.

Cheers!

Siebrand
