It's clearly not the PVP, so it ought to be documented somewhere for the sake of future contributors and maintainers.

The documentation should include answers for the following questions:

  1. Motivation for deviating from the PVP, and tradeoffs
  2. Specification: lower bounds, upper bounds, and version bumps, for all the categories of packages.
    There are 3 categories imho:
    1. core packages
    2. plugin packages
    3. the HLS package
  3. Examples of releases that involve interactions with Hackage:
    1. Major release
    2. Bug fix release for core packages
    3. Bug fix release for plugin packages
    4. Bug fix release for HLS

We are following pvp almost strictly in practice, not sure if it still is needed to document it somewhere
