Review Comment: I am fine going in separately but it needs to be released together. I think, the additional flag would complete fixing this situation. If an implementation uses min/max values as existing values and realize this spec change we would still give something to them to continue their approach. I agree if the flag is not there we cannot assume the min/max values are actual values. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
