Good tip. My device doesn't have any official build newer than 17.1 so I may need to start building my own images.

16.0 was still getting security patches merged till 19.0 release, so it’s a pretty decent change you can work this way for a while.

I just wish the devs clarified timelines around merges (but not builds) on older branches.

"When it's ready."

Stuff is merged in once it's well tested and ready. It also is only updated as long as someone still cares to update it.
