Extensions

Status

An extension may be considered stable, experimental or out-of-tree.

  • A stable status indicates that an extension is fully supported by the OpenStack Identity team.
  • An experimental status indicates that although the intention is to keep the API unchanged, we reserve the right to change it up until the point that it is deemed stable.
  • An out-of-tree status indicates that no formal support will be provided.

Graduation Process

By default, major new functionality that is proposed to be in-tree will start off in experimental status. Typically it would take at minimum of one cycle to transition from experimental to stable, although in special cases this might happened within a cycle.

Removal Process

It is not intended that functionality should stay in experimental for a long period, functionality that stays experimental for more than two releases would be expected to make a transition to either stable or out-of-tree.
