Perhaps, but right now the policy is to update it, so do it.  The
policy is also to post eclass changes for review on -dev, so do that
too.  That means do it BEFORE you commit it.  I don't care if you post
it raw, or post a link to a file, or post a link to a proposed commit
on your private little git branch, but don't commit it and then send
out a link to the commit in production after the fact.

This whole double-thread is ridiculous.  If somebody at work
deliberately violated a dumb policy and pointed out it was dumb, the
answer would be, "thanks, we'll look into changing the dumb policy,
now pack up your desk to make room for the new employee who can
benefit from the improved policy."

If you don't like the rules feel free to whine, beg, and plead to QA,
the council, $DIETY, or your mother, but follow the rules until
they're changed.  There is always room for mistakes, but big projects
don't work when everybody just does whatever they feel like doing.
