Hi, [disclaimer: I'm not part of the release team]

My understanding of what the release team explained [1] is that January 5 is the deadline for "New (source) packages in stretch", and "New packages must be in testing before January 5th". So I think we're already past the deadline for accepting new packages, given the 10-days migration delay.
