2.0.0 Release Readiness Record

This record tracks release readiness for AsiBackbone 2.0.0.

Release intent

2.0.0 is a major release that establishes the simplified AsiBackbone.* package and namespace identity.

The release remains bounded to practical Accountable Systems Infrastructure software: policy evaluation, governance decisions, acknowledgment workflows, audit residue, durable outbox contracts, provider emission boundaries, package templates, analyzers, and signing-provider seams.

Breaking-change review

2.0.0 intentionally includes a breaking public identity change.

Required migration:

  • update package references to the matching AsiBackbone.* package IDs;
  • update using statements to the matching AsiBackbone.* namespaces;
  • regenerate or review template output where projects rely on template identity metadata;
  • retest package consumers after migration.

Boundary notes

This release does not change the project into an intelligence engine, compliance product, robot controller, signing appliance, or operational enforcement system. Hosts still own authentication, authorization, execution, persistence, key management, privacy review, operational monitoring, and legal/compliance interpretation.
