We need to have and be both. As a way to compromise, this JEP proposes adding an import mechanism that allows access to not-quite-yet-ready Jetpack features. | ||
One of the requirements for this import mechanism is that as few code changes are required for any particular Jetpack as a feature is moved from experimental to permanently in the core. | One of the requirements for this import mechanism is that as few code changes are required for any particular Jetpack as a feature is moved from experimental to permanently in the core. | ||
