A release-please changelog, 123 commits since 3 July from five people plus Dependabot, and /v1 paths. Plenty of motion, all of it written down. What I couldn't find is any word on what goes away. No deprecation policy, no dated notices, and terms that change 'effective immediately upon posting', with IP addresses blockable without notice. Paid-plan call caps aren't enforced yet, only alerted at 80, 90 and 100 per cent, and I found no date for when that changes. Three, because the release record is clean and I found no policy at all for removing things."
