Less likely. Next step after public review is to gather comments from public review. If something is really pressing and needs to be addressed, then yes this will change. Else this gets ratified as it is.
If the commit sha can change, then it is useless. What's the guarantee someone is going to remember to update it if it changes?
Sorry for late reply.
I was following existing wordings and patterns for messaging in this file. You would rather have me remove sha and only mention that spec is in public review?
Nope, having a commit sha is desired. None of this is mergeable until at least the spec becomes frozen, so the sha can be updated at that point to the freeze state - or better yet to the ratified state. Being in public review is not sufficient.
Spec is frozen. As per RVI spec lifecycle, spec freeze is a prior step to public review. Public review concluded on 25th April https://lists.riscv.org/g/tech-ss-lp-cfi/message/91
Next step is ratification whenever board meets.
Ah, I did the "silly" thing of looking on the RVI website at extension status (because I never know the order of things) and these two extensions were marked on there as being in the inception phase, so I incorrectly assumed that "public review" came before freeze. Freeze is the standard that we have been applying so far, but if ratification is imminent, and nothing has changed in the review period, then it seems sane to just pick the freeze point for the definition.
Yeah I don't think wiki is that regularly updated. But take a look at Ratification-Ready list of specs here https://wiki.riscv.org/display/HOME/RISC-V+Specification+Status
Cheers, Conor.
