If it turns out on the planned date of the freeze that there are still major issues open, we need to be flexible enough to delay the freeze.
Both the Etch and Lenny releases did clearly show this, and the success of both releases (Etch more than Lenny IMO) is largely thanks to flexible starts of the incremental freeze stages. Given Debian's release history it is IMO wishful thinking to expect to be able to freeze on a set date. There is simply no way you can direct anybody to work on specific issues *now* because the freeze is coming. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
