Will there be 1.72.1 dates added to the calendar?
Will 1.72.1 be open for merges of bug fixes that
happened in other libraries since 1.72.0 too?

For example, in GIL we have just fixed this issue
https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pull/409
Will there be a chance to merge it into 1.72.1?

I have never participated in any way in Boost bugfix releases,
so I don't know what is the typical procedure.
