### Moving to a lower category
If rules to keep a device in a category are no longer fulfilled, we should
create a merge request to move them to the now appropriate category.
If rules to keep a device in a category are no longer fulfilled, an attempt to
contact the device maintainers and make them aware of the situation must be
made. The maintainers then have two weeks to ensure the device meets the criteria
again. Maintainers can request additional time in response, but only up to one
more month from the time they were contacted. If a stable release is scheduled
for branching in that timeframe, additional time can only be requested up until
the date of the branching.
If the maintainers cannot be contacted, or if two weeks and any additionally
requested time pass and the device still does not meet the criteria, a merge
request to move them to the now appropriate category should be opened.
Merge requests moving a device to a lower category are subject to the standard
[pmaports approval rules](./approval-rules).
