Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-14170:
------------------------------------

So why did you assign yourself to this JIRA January 6th if you disagree it 
should be done?
The experimental warning was not intended due to known security holes, but to 
give time for APIs and tools to mature (or radically change) without us needing 
to provide back compat guarantees. We agreed on this very clearly in Slack and 
I am disappointed you resist. The way the feature is described now, even with 
explicit enabling and security warnings, I'm afraid we have to support exactly 
todays package format and APIs as normal, I wanted a disclaimer to let people 
know that they run a risk of having to re-package their packages and change 
their integrations for any future Solr version, until we stamp it as GA.

> The new package store and package installation feature introduced in 8.4 was 
> supposed to be tagged as lucene.experimental with a clear warning in 
> ref-guide "Not yet recommended for production use"
> Let's add that for 8.5 so there is no doubt that if you use the feature you 
> know the risks. Once the APIs have stabilized and there are a number of 
> packages available "in the wild", we can decide to release it as a "GA" 
> feature, but not yet!
