From your README in the repository.

These are examples which anyone can use at their own risk and the PMC does not 
intend to make RELEASES. Is this correct? If so then that should be very clear.

Anything the community decides to support for the future in a release should be 
moved into the appropriate Pulsar repository and component.

If this were made clear then I would be a +1.

Security vulnerabilities found would still require care and attention from the 
PMC due to the private nature of this reporting. You will need a SECURITY.md 
file.

Best,
Dave
