[Feature Request] Process for accepting new features/enhancements (Working backwards?)

Open jainankitk opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Today, we don't have clear process (atleast I am unaware of) for acceptance or rejection of feature. We should have clear guidelines on when a feature can be accepted/rejected and if accepted should be part of module, plugin, core, experimental.

Describe the solution you'd like

Some of the questions to be answered by the process are below:

  • When a feature is better as part of core vs plugin?
  • What are scenarios for feature being developed as experimental?
  • Are there any backward compatibility guarantees with experimental feature (seems like no)?
  • Is it okay to introduce core features (or even experimental) without clear use cases?
