I might recommend four or five working days if the change is quite intrusive (based on my personal experience) - but we can start here!

We discussed what we consider integration points here : https://lists.apache.org/thread/0nj24zro7kyctqfnlml08ppo7zs9xcqs, wondering if we should link it here or be a bit precise on expectation on what interface we should give additional time to review

Can we add that SPIs/APIs changes, as well as structural changes like a Java module added/removed?

SPI/API are not well-defined in Polaris now, IMHO. The discussion linked above is a good starting point, but I do not think we completely ironed it out yet 😅 Let's continue the dev discussion by email and update guidelines when we have a solid definition of SPI/API.

For now, I believe it has to remain a bit vague and applied with common sense.

It's true that some SPIs/APIs in Polaris are still not clearly defined. That said, we do have well-defined ones, for example, the REST Spec.

Also, I'd suggest that structural changes, such as adding or removing Java modules, should probably allow for a longer review window.
