Scope
WTP 3.0.1 is a service release 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 should avoid changing the interface or behaviour of any public method as per the WTP API Policy.
Bug Approval
All bugs must be approved by the project lead. Starting with RC1, bugs must also be approved by the normal PMC Approval Process.
