  • UpgradingPackages

    v1 v2  
    22 * Minor releases: bug fixes only. 
    33 * Major releases: major upgrades of packages that are part of the HP should be considered.

     5== Refactoring == 
     6 
     7It is acceptable to refactor a package. E.g. 
     8 
     9 opengl 
     10 
     11could be split into 
     12 
     13 opengl-core  
     14 opengl-extras 
     15 
     16Such 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.
