## Backporting Policy
60+
61+
Mainly critical issue fixes might be backported to the most recent minor release.
62+
Special backport requests can be discussed during the weekly Community meeting or via Slack channel;
63+
this does not guarantee an exceptional backport will be created.
64+
65+
Occasionally non-critical issue fixes will be backported, either at an approver’s discretion or by request as noted above.
66+
If you believe an issue should be backported, please feel free to reach out and raise your concerns or needs.
67+
For information on contacting maintainers via the [#olm-dev](https://kubernetes.slack.com/archives/C0181L6JYQ2) Slack channel
68+
and attending meetings. To know more about see [How to Contribute](./CONTRIBUTING.md).
