Hi Rachel, all,

IMO “Polishing” is a little odd. “Stable" is used a lot, but the description on the link seems different from the traditional use as it applies to IT.

My suggestions are:

Placeholder
Exploratory
Development
Review
Candidate

Another alternate for 4 might be “Evaluation” and for 5,  “Provisional”.


Thank you,

Andy
