/**
* Indicates a public API that can change at any time, and has no guarantee of API stability and
* backward-compatibility. If users want stabilization or signature change of a specific API that
* is currently annotated {@code @ExperimentalApi}, please comment on its tracking issue on github
* with rationale, usecase, and so forth, so that the gRPC team may prioritize the process toward
* stabilization of the API.
*
* Usage guidelines:
*
* - This annotation is used only on public API. Internal interfaces should not use it.
* - After gRPC has gained API stability, this annotation can only be added to new API. Adding it
* to an existing API is considered API-breaking.
* - Removing this annotation from an API gives it stable status.
*
*
* Note: This annotation is intended only for gRPC library code. Users should not attach this
* annotation to their own code.
*
*
See: grpc-java-api-checker, an
* Error Prone plugin to automatically check for usages of this API.
