I didn't think through, but we have to add them to the list of
things to clarify.

Do this to freshen the platform and keep it relevant. Containers
always lag supporting the latest specification and I’d expect
this to be especially pronounced with a namespace change.
Changing a namespace may sound easy, but I am guessing
maintaining backward support may not be - may cause products to
be EOL or forked etc. Maybe move specifications that are low
risk and/or not used as widely to the new namespace but make
this optional.
