Platforms

In general, platforms should ensure that they support the stated changes to be compliant with Platform API 0.3.

Tekton

An update to the Tekton task will be available per issue #194.

pack

Added support for Platform API 0.3

pack will be compatible with Platform API 0.3 although it will not yet take advantage of all the new features. (#509)

Dropping support of Platform API 0.1

The platform team aims to always provide support for n-1 of the platform API and buildpack API versions. Given that a new platform API version (0.3) is available, we found it reasonable to drop support for platform API 0.1. (#509)

For more detail on what the changes are between platform API 0.1 and 0.2 please refer to the prior notice.

Builders

No impact to builders is expected.

Buildpacks

No impact to buildpacks is expected.
