+### Suspending releases for providers
+
+In case a provider is found to require old dependencies that are not
compatible with upcoming versions of
+the Apache Airflow or with newer dependencies required by other providers, the
provider's release
+process can be suspended.
+
+This means:
+
+* The provider's status is set to "suspended"
+* No new releases of the provider will be made until the problem with
dependencies is solved
+* Sources of the provider remain in the repository for now (in the future we
might add process to remove them)
+* No new changes will be accepted for the provider (other than the ones that
fix the dependencies)
+* The provider will be removed from the list of Apache Airflow extras in the
next minor/major release
+ (2.7.0, 2.8.0, 3.0.0 etc.)
+* Tests of the provider will not be run on our CI (in main branch)
+* Dependencies of the provider will not be installed in our main branch CI
image nor included in constraints
+* We can still decide to apply security fixes to released providers - by
adding fixes to the main branch
+ but cherry-picking, testing and releasing them in the patch-level branch of
the provider similar to the
+ mixed governance model described above.
+
+The suspension might be triggered by any committer, providing that:
+
+* The maintainers of dependencies of the provider are notified about the issue
and are given a reasonable
+ time to resolve it (at least 1 week)
+* Other options to resolve the issue have been exhausted and there are good
reasons for upgrading
+ the old dependencies in question
+* Explanation, why we need to suspend the provider is stated in a public
discussion in the devlist. Followed
+ by LAZY CONSENSUS or VOTE (with the majority of the committers agreeing that
we should suspend the provider)

i think majority of committers means you require at least half of all
commiters to vote in favor!
