I can speak for some of the rel_2_2 commits.  Serials routing lists  
was there already, albeit broken for libraries that have 1 biblio - 1  
biblioitem - many items. All of the commits around serials have been  
to do with fixing bugs.
Including the serial routing ones, the only way to fix it, was with  
item level reserves. The way this has been added is that nothing  
changes at all, unless you explicity switch item level reserves on. I  
tried to do it in the least disruptive way possible, so that nothing  
at all changes.

Holidays was also partially backported already, all the commits in  
the last 2 weeks have been tidying that up. So from our end we are  
trying to work towards stable working features.

AFAIK we plan to add no new features to rel_2_2 all the commits were  
around getting the existing features working properly.

Hope this helps
