2.2 is dead and finished.  It is time to move to 2.4.  Nobody is working 
on 2.2 as far as I know.

The backport vote for the fix is ongoing and likely there will be a 
release soon after the fix will have been voted into 2.2. But it might 
be it will be published after your 30 days deadline.

In general "yes": if you can, you should migrate to 2.4.
