We are currently in the "Beta to Pre Release" phase of the release
cycle. The updates policy for this phase - 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy#Beta_to_Pre_Release -
says:

"From this point onwards maintainers MUST[1]:

    Avoid Major version updates, ABI breakage or API changes if at all
possible."

However, it seems a major new release of LLVM is appearing in F31 at
present, and AFAIK there has been no discussion or communication about
this at all.

LLVM 9 is currently in the buildroot, and an update with a very short
description has been submitted:

https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-b83bd6b46c

(it just says "Update for LLVM 9 rebase.", which is odd since it *is*
the LLVM 9 rebase).

There is no Change for this, I can't find a mail about it anywhere,
it's just been sort of dumped in. Is there enough grounds for dumping
in a major new LLVM and violating the update policy at this point in
the F31 release?
