From 51cea054a276c6425e26b25219e67b37207dee3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Trott Date: Thu, 2 Mar 2017 10:37:20 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] doc: remove Locked from stability index MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The stability index 3 (Locked) is unused and is being eliminated. Remove it from the documentation about the stability index. Remove mention of the Locked from CONTRIBUTING.md. The remaining text about the stability index is slight and not seemingly valuable. Removing it too.
