Okay -- looking at NEWS.GIT-RULES it actually says the opposite:
2. All news updates intended for public viewing, such as new features,
bug fixes, improvements, etc., should go into the NEWS file of the
*first* to be released version with the given change. In other words
any NEWS file change only needs to done in one branch.
How about changing it to:
2. All news updates intended for public viewing, such as new features,
bug fixes, improvements, etc., should go into the NEWS file of *any
stable release* version with the given change. In other words,
news about a bug fix which went into PHP-5.4, PHP-5.5 and master
should be noted in both PHP-5.4/NEWS and PHP-5.5/NEWS but
not master, which is not a public released version yet.
PS: I post that for other people that had not time to notice this
discussion and I will most probably give a week or so for others to
speek up before changing any settled rules. Could well be there are
people who do not want to write two NEWS entries :)
