Thanks Adam. I've been guilty of using them incorrectly (or at least
sloppily) and will try to mend my ways.
This is probably mostly because "non-blocking" seems like it needs more
explanation than "secondary" ("non-blocking" is generally a _good_
thing in software, right?). Also, it seems pretty tied to only what
happens at release time, when really, what we want to say is "this is
best-effort at release, and, if that release effort happens to go well,
keeping it maintained is in a similar boat".
So, if we redefine anything, maybe "blocking" and "best-effort"? (I'm
fine with "non-blocking" as a technical term... I'm just thinking about
explaining it to people....)
