UpgradingPackages

Robert M. Lefkowitz edited this page Jun 23, 2014 · 2 revisions




  • Minor releases: bug fixes only.
  • Major releases: major upgrades of packages that are part of the HP should be considered.

Refactoring

It is acceptable to refactor a package. E.g.

opengl

could be split into

opengl-core
opengl-extras

Such a change would not require consensus review. However, if the interface changes at the same time (e.g. a module is moved in or out of the namespace), these are now treated as new packages, and should be subject to review.
