No. IMO it is better to just drop that term. |

Ultimately maintainers decide what gets stabilized, subject to the |
| 14 |
general rule of 30 days in ~arch and no major bugs. If the games team |
| 15 |
is maintaining a package then they can decide not to have stable |
| 16 |
keywords. |

Note that not all games are necessarily maintained by the games team, |
| 19 |
and this news item doesn't really make that clear. Individual |
| 20 |
maintainers are generally not bound to decisions made by the games |
| 21 |
team, or at least that was the last council decision I recall on the |
| 22 |
subject. |
