Project: 
Drupal core
Introduced in branch: 
8.x
Introduced in version: 
8.x-UNSTABLE1
Issue links: 
https://www.drupal.org/node/237634
Description: 

node_access_write_grants is now named _node_access_write_grants to discourage its use. Any module writing its grants with this function will always get them written. However, when rebuilding permissions, core will collect grants from all node access modules via node_access_acquire_grants and only the ones with the highest priority win. This may result in different data and thus in unreliable node access.

I can't quite figure out what this is talking about or why it is in the main d.o RSS feed. Perhaps this needs to have some sort of introduction and context if it is intended for broad public consumption.

This was part of a test for better notifications of core changes and commits... but I'm pretty sure it wasn't supposed to be published to the front page feed of drupal.org. I don't remember the issue, but I remember someone mentioning this before it popped up in my RSS reader :-/
