The only thing causing confusion has been whether we interpret the existing platform versioning proposal in the light of the PVP and then change the platform API policy to suit, or if we decide our policy and then adjust the platform versioning scheme to follow the PVP.

OK, then we agree. To rephrase it: If any constituent part of the HP is upgraded to something more than a bug-fix release, the HP can't be a bug fix release, either.
Right. Yet another way of putting it is: if we decide the policy is that HP minor releases are bug fix only then we could not include any updates in constituent parts that were not just bug fixes (such updates would have to wait for the next major HP release). Duncan
