ruff is a linter and formatter for Python code (i.e. a tool for developers). So it is in a similar situation as "black", for which an Updates Policy Exception was already granted some time ago.

I would like to update ruff to versions that contain technically "breaking" changes in stable branches. I expect that most developers who are using the Fedora package for ruff would prefer to get the latest and greatest version ASAP (upstream publishes releases with new features and bug fixes very regularly).

Other distribution channels that are recommended by upstream also get new versions of ruff instantly or quickly (PyPI, Homebrew, etc.) and other Linux distributions that provide first-party packages for ruff also seem to push new releases regularly, so it would be very odd for Fedora to ship old versions of something that is improving so fast.

The upstream release log is here: https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff/releases

This is basically the same as #2259 and #2525, so seems reasonable to grant.
