Indeed for wheezy we allowed translation updates and documentation fixes up to two months into the freeze: "translation updates and documentation fixes;"[1] In the Jessie freeze policy, we instead have: "translation updates and documentation fixes, via TPU when included with other TPU-applicable fixes. (until the 5th of January 2015)"[2] To me this reads as: - translation updates and documentation fixes are fine in unstable until the 5th of January - translation updates and documentation fixes are fine in t-p-u until the 5th of January, *only* if accompanied by other fixes that meet the t-p-u criteria This indeed matches the old description, which was clarified in 42b55359d12ed5c70a53ac041fedaa45b1e729ad. So I believe this was just a confusion. Jonathan, does the above make sense? Or did I miss anything?
