Scope
All WTP 3.0.x releases are service releases for critical defects, regressions, and adopter issues only. Specifically, there should be:
- No UI changes
- No NL (translation) changes
- No API changes, or changes affecting adopter usage scans
All exceptions require PMC approval.
In general, we will avoid changing the interface or behaviour of any public method as per the WTP API Policy.
All bundle versions must be updated (an increment in the service level) when the first change is made to it in a service release.
Bug Approval
All bugs must be approved by the project lead or delegate using the bugzilla review flag. Project leads should send a note to wtp-releng to notify everyone of their choice or change in delegate(s).
Starting after RC1, all bugs must also be approved by the normal PMC Approval Process.
