In the past, we'd remove public APIs after deprecating them across a full major release: i.e. we'd deprecate something we want to remove in 0.96.0 in 0.94.0 (not 0.94.1). Are the metrics changes to public "stable" APIs? If so, I'd ask why change our convention now? If they are "evolving", we might bend the rules. Regards, what goes into 0.94.1, its up to the release manager. They can entertain petitions regards what to include but ultimately its up to the RM when it happens and what is in it. St.Ack
