We are running a fix in category sorting collations. That was a fix for the
bug (introduced by developers, 3rd party software, whatever), not an

Thank you, having examples helps.
It is a good practice to notify stakeholders when fixing something might
break or disrupt other things. Usually our bug tracking, code review and
release/deployment processes should be enough to involve and notify in
real time whoever needs to be warned or is likely to complain.
If you need more, then there are at least 4 people that can help you.

If we are talking about bugs, then Andre Klapper aka bugmeister is a
natural default. If anybody else needs to be involved he will know.
