+## Backporting Policy
+
+Mainly critical issue fixes are backported to the most recent minor release.
+Special backport requests can be discussed during the weekly Community meeting or via Slack channel;
+this does not guarantee an exceptional backport will be created.
+
+Occasionally non-critical issue fixes will be backported, either at an approver’s discretion or by request as noted above.
+For information on contacting maintainers and attending meetings, check the community repository.
+
+### Process
+
+1. Create a PR with the fix cherry-picked against to the release branch.
+2. Ask for a review from the maintainers.
+3. Once approved, merge the PR and perform the Patch Release steps above.
