That's probably a good point to avoid that. But given that Squeeze is going to be an exception by the short release cycle anyway, why can't we add another exception that the first freeze is not December, even if it means the other implied exception is that we are in freeze for Debconf *10* (and not for every Debconf)? -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 1024D/F1BCDB73 aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
