@ -152,8 +156,7 @@ Several rules for dealing with the unstable tier will be introduced:
- To move an API from the unstable tier to the public tier, it should be
exposed without the ``PyUnstable_*`` prefix.
The old name should remain available until the first incompatible change
is made or the API is removed.
The old name should remain available until the API is deprecated or removed.
- Adding new unstable API *for existing features* is allowed even after
Beta feature freeze, up until the first Release Candidate.
