Indeed, I recall it now

If the EG decides we should ditch the API and rather defer the issue resolution to another release, we will remove the API. If EG decides to change the API, we will change it.

However, again, this approach was earlier consider by this EG as too difficult to follow and committing directly to master seemed to be the preferred way. The changes are more readily viewable on the web site, in the snapshot API docs or maven artifacts etc. But, if we want to revisit this and perhaps change the process, we can.

Definitely no need to do it, it will be just an extra hassle for you

OK. All know that a lot of attention went into creating this API, as far
as I'm concerned I'll just need to revisit again what it actually helps
with, hope I'll provide a better feedback

Cheers, Sergey
