The model change can be approved and applied to Newton. During Newton we’ll figure out how to communicate about projects that have changed their tags — we don’t want to rewrite history for old releases but we don’t want it to be hard for users to find full project history. I have some ideas to handle it but I’m waiting until after the summit to implement them.
