What should a reseller ask about corrections after a release has been distributed?

Correction handling needs explicit release identity and customer communication responsibilities so downstream users can distinguish changed content from changed evaluation meaning.

**What should a reseller ask about corrections after a release has been distributed?**

Ask how a correction would be identified, described and made available under the proposed arrangement. A typographical repair differs from changing the expected outcome of a task. Customers need to know which kind of revision they are receiving.

**Does a replacement release automatically update customer copies?**

That should not be assumed. Downloaded files, hosted environments and customer-created derivatives have different update paths. Clarify responsibility for making corrections visible and whether customers can retain a pinned version for reproducibility.

**What happens to earlier evaluation results?**

A corrected reference outcome may change how a previous run should be interpreted. Request a way to connect the correction to affected tasks, so customers can determine whether to revisit their results. This does not require promising a particular correction schedule or support level.

A reseller's first step can be to describe its customer update mechanism and ask which release information would support it. Keep corrections to generated content distinct from ordinary policy changes inside a scenario: the former repair the product, while the latter are part of the workflow being tested.

Clarify correction handling before launch, particularly where a revised reference answer could affect customer reports or repeated evaluations.
