After the merge of #125 and #124, the maintainer decided on 2026-10-19:
- Decision 21, "Closing the gate": rc8 is mandatory (master is ahead of rc7 by
the seven product files of #125, and stable is accepted through the last
prerelease); rc8 carries the fix of the false "no access" of
Get-NTFSEffectiveAccess, while the hard-link names under a root that is not
the volume root stay a known limit listed in the release notes; the plain
test gaps are closed in a tests-only round until 2026-11-02; the steps from
rc8 to the stable tag.
- Decision 22 accepted: all ten behavior changes of rc7, two of them breaking.
- Decision 23: option 3, a decision date of 2026-11-02; the gate for #34 stays
open, and no risk is accepted.
- Decision 24 accepted: the operating-system matrix as it is.
The decision index, the active context, and the progress file follow. The
oldest entries of the progress file are shortened to stay under the line
budget.

Phase 2 is complete on the branch: the fixes, the basic-user CI, the
live tests of all cmdlet groups, three passing lab acceptances, two
reviews, and the coverage across the four configurations, measured again
without --save, which kept only one run. The behavior changes for the
maintainer and the reachable code that no test runs are open work. The
Set-Acl pitfall of the test fixtures is a pattern.

Record the release of 5.0.0-rc5, Phase 1 of the quality gate that the
maintainer set before 5.0.0 (Decision 21): the published package passes
the live tests, every test runs in at least one configuration, and the
suite runs 55.9% of the C# lines and 37.4% of the branches. Record the
coverage measurement with AltCover, the GitHub CLI on the third
workstation, and the plan of Phase 2, which ends with 5.0.0-rc6.
