-Each proposal SHALL justify and fully specify any changes or extensions to existing OMG specifications that its adoption requires.+A Submission may identify changes or extensions to existing OMG specifications that would be required for its adoption. GPR-008 governs how to identify, justify, and specify those changes or extensions.

 +===== Notes for Editors ===== 
 + 
 +The requirement identifier and short title link to the authoritative requirement record in Annex C. 
 + 
 +The Statement displayed in this section is transcluded from its Annex C requirement page and is not an independently maintained copy. 
 + 
 +Make changes to the Statement or its Requirement Level on its Annex C requirement page. 
 + 
 +GPR-008 is mandatory when adoption of the Submission depends on changing or extending an existing OMG specification. 
 + 
 +The OMG preference for upward compatibility and minimal change is an evaluation consideration rather than a separate normative requirement because it does not use ''SHALL'' or ''SHOULD''. 
 + 
 +[[public:00-sip-ra:99-annexes:annex-c-requirements:sip-026-preservation-of-existing-omg-specifications|SIP-026 — Preservation of Existing OMG Specifications]] prohibits the Submission from replacing, superseding, or modifying existing OMG specifications. Consequently, a proposed change governed by GPR-008 must also comply with SIP-026. 
 + 
 +A proposed extension must remain consistent with the scope restrictions of this RFP and must not redefine or duplicate capabilities governed by:
