Technical tradeoffs
- • Focusing on regression and documentation fixes for the stable branch ensures stability but delays the introduction of new features.
- • The timeline for the 16.2 release allows time for fixing regressions but might be tight depending on the number and severity of issues.
- • Increased P1-P3 bug counts necessitate careful prioritization and resource allocation for fixes.
