We apparently have different definitions of "few"; mailing 12 days after the initial freeze announcement is quite different from mailing 12 days after the announcement of the more restrictive approach. > - PHP 5.3 has been sent to SID/Testing just few days before the freeze. The upload history of the php5 package disagrees with you. 5.3.1 was originally uploaded to unstable in early February, and 5.3.2 in March; 5.3.2-1 migrated to testing in April. > We all have to make sure that > our packages are in good shape for this new version of PHP.

Please could you explain this comment? As above, PHP 5.3.2 has been in unstable since March, and testing since April; that was the maintainers' decision and not something that required the Release Team to be "ready to accept the consequences".
