Re: [cross-project-issues-dev] Unannounced Changes Have Unforeseen Conse

[Doug Schaefer <dschaefer@xxxxxxx>]

This affected CDT too. Luckily we were some what prepared and had one or
our crack committers fix it but it did force us to make a change to
continue on with Neon.

So, I¹m not sure how this is not an API breaking change, deprecated or
not. I believe the Platform is going to have to ask the Planning Council
for an exception for this and get their approval.
