 Slack is Rubin Observatory's real-time chat platform.
 It is used by project staff and science collaboration members, who can view and join all public channels.
 Partnering users and projects may also be allowed to join specific channels as guests.

 Slack has a concept of user groups that can be notified instead of an entire channel that has members outside that group.
 If you can use such a group rather than ``@channel`` or ``@here``, that is preferred.

 @-mentioning a particular user notifies that user and adds the message to their "Mentions & reactions" list.

+Providing Stable Interfaces
+===========================
+
+Transferring code between packages is a breaking change and stable interfaces should be provided on a
+best-effort basis to support external users.
+If the origin repository is downstream of the destination (as is typically the case),
+this can be achieved by importing code from the destination repository with an alias,
+trivially repackaging it following the deprecation procedure described in
+:doc:`Deprecating Interfaces <deprecating-interfaces>`.
+
+As an example, if a Python class `TreecorrConfig` is moved from package `origin` to package `destination`,
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from lsst.destination import TreecorrConfig as TreecorrConfigNew
+    from depecated.sphinx import deprecated
+
+    __all__ = ["TreecorrConfig", ...]
+
+    @deprecated(reason="Moved to lsst.destination",
+                version="v22.0",
+                category=FutureWarning)
+    class TreecorrConfig(TreecorrConfigNew):
+        pass
+
+In the relative less common case of moving code downstream, the following pattern can be used:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import warnings
+
+    try:
+        from lsst.drp.tasks.assemble_coadd import *  # noqa: F401, F403
+    except ImportError as error:
+        error.msg += ". Please import the coaddition tasks from drp_tasks package."
+        raise error
+    finally:
+        warnings.warn("lsst.pipe.tasks.assembleCoadd is deprecated and will be removed after v27; "
+                      "Please use lsst.drp.tasks.assemble_coadd instead.",
+                      DeprecationWarning,
+                      stacklevel=2
+                      )
+
+This allows the code to be imported from the old location (with a deprecation warning) with a fully built
+version of the Science Pipelines, but does not introduces cyclic dependencies during the build process.
