I'd be happy to do that, I was just not aware of this policy.
For ffmpeg, I routinely double-check
https://www.ffmpeg.org/security.html and noticed that 2.8.7 does not
fix any known vulnerability. Since no build or runtime errors were
reported in bugzilla for 2.8.6, it seemed to me that the quarterly
branch does not have a problem that needs fixing.
Is patch-level updating covered by a blanket?

Best regards
Riggs
