Re: FESCo #1263 question (optional javadocs)

As a hypothetical, I was mainly concerned about backporting a new F21 java package as a F20 update to make it available to users still on that version, and whether that would require javadocs. Just in case, I've added a "%if 0%{fedora} < 21" condition for javadocs, and the appropriate Obsoletes line when the condition fails (>=20), but that's more to maintain in the specfile, and it'd be much simpler to just not declare any subpackaging for javadocs.

Hello,
Regarding https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1263

Does this policy change affect updates to older releases still receiving updates? Or only F21 and later?
It has been approved as a F21 Change, so it should affect only F≥21.  Technically, the packaging guideline change is somewhat independent from the Change process; I’d argue that updates to existing F≤20 packages should not remove functionality, though.
