We might introduce additional features but there should be a high bar.

* By end of 9/30/2021, we should mark the metrics API/SDK specification as
[`Feature-freeze`](../../specification/document-status.md#feature-freeze),
`Feature-freeze`,
and focus on bug fixing or editorial changes.

* By end of 11/30/2021, we want to have a stable release of metrics API/SDK

[OTEP 0232](../oteps/0232-maturity-of-otel.md#explanation)
maturity level definitions.

## Feature freeze

In addition to the maturity levels above, documents may be marked as `Feature-freeze`. These documents are not currently accepting new feature requests, to allow the Technical Committee time to focus on other areas of the specification. Editorial changes are still accepted. Changes that address production issues with existing features are still accepted.

Feature freeze is separate from a maturity level. The maturity level represents the support requirements for the document, feature freeze only indicates the current focus of the specification community. The feature freeze label may be applied to a document at any maturity level. By definition, deprecated documents have a feature freeze in place.

## Mixed

Some documents have individual sections with different statuses. These documents are marked with the status `Mixed` at the top, for clarity.
