Breaking changes to data file names

The data files at http://www.unicode.org/Public/cldr/27/ are named:

cldr-common-27.0.zip
cldr-keyboards-27.0.zip
cldr-tools-27.0.zip

Is this a permanent change in the naming scheme, or a development
artifact that leaked out by accident?

If it's permanent, then it breaks the statements in RFCs 6067 (sections
2.1 and 2.2) and 6497 (sections 2.4 and 2.9) that BCP 47 extension data
is located in core.zip. At least the registration records in
language-tag-extensions-registry, and probably the RFCs themselves, will
have to be updated promptly.
