[policy, no patch] Mark Package Manager as a beta stability core module

Created on 6 May 2025, 6 days ago

Problem/Motivation

Package Manager has fixed its two outstanding beta blockers as a core module. It was committed with alpha stability a while ago, but has been kept in core's code base as a one-time exception to normal policy because it was necessary in order to test updating core using the Automatic Updates module (which relies on Package Manager).

Although Package Manager has quite a few stable blockers and needs triage, its API can now be considered stable. No changes are needed to the module itself in order to mark it as beta.

Release notes snippet

Package Manager is now a beta module in Drupal core. It doesn't do anything on its own, but provides the foundational APIs used by Project Browser and Automatic Updates . Those APIs are stable and will be backwards-compatible, so it is now considered safe to rely on this module and build other projects on top of it.
