==========
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`.
