  4. Before quoting a number

Before describing a product or distribution

[ ] I read its composer.json (require), not only its description
[ ] Features I name are in its requirements or its documentation
[ ] I do not borrow features of another distribution (the DXP has no layouts editor,
    workflow, scheduler or legacy kernel)
[ ] I name the version I describe
[ ] I link the source

Pages: Exponential Platform DXP, Choosing a product.

Before depending on a package

[ ] License compatible with my use
[ ] PHP and kernel versions in its composer.json fit my installation
[ ] Recent releases or commits; issues answered
[ ] Version fields match the tag
[ ] Tested on a copy of my site
[ ] I know who maintains it, or I can maintain it myself

Pages: Finding an extension, Compatibility and dependencies.

Before publishing a package

[ ] No secrets, customer data or site-specific settings
[ ] LICENSE file; README with what it does, supported versions, installation
[ ] composer.json; Packagist entry; webhook
[ ] ezinfo.php and extension.xml carry the release version
[ ] Next version chosen from the published tags sorted by version
[ ] Tag pushed only after the checks; never moved afterwards
[ ] Listed on Projects and announced

Pages: Publishing into the ecosystem, The release checklist.

Before quoting a number

[ ] I know the source and its date
[ ] I say the date, or recount with the command the source names
[ ] It is not a guess presented as fact
