            <p>In the ACTF project, the reserved words 'internal', 'tests', or 'examples' may appear after the component name. For example,

            ACTF plans to freeze the APIs after reflecting community feedback in Indigo release (0.9),

            
            then all APIs will be graduating from provisional in Juno release (1.0).

	<p>To avoid unexpected propagation, namespace URIs in ACTF project will be defined as follows:</p>
	<ul>
	<li>http://www.eclipse.org/projects/actf/<component>[/*]</li>
	</ul>
	<p>
	If you need to create new namespaces, please submit a request to the newsgroup.
	</p>

	<h2 id="API">5. APIs</h2>
	<p>In ACTF, all internal APIs are in internal packages
	and currently are not exported to others.
	(see also <a href="#naming">Naming Conventions</a>)
	</p>
	<p>
	All public APIs exported to others are currently provisional.
	ACTF plans to freeze the APIs after reflecting community feedback in Indigo release (0.9),
	then all APIs will be graduating from provisional in Juno release (1.0).
