That seems very different to what's usually meant in Debian by "freeze"
(and "freeze" was the term used in both the debian-announce and
debian-devel-announce mails). AFAICS, a December agreement of that sort
would mean a Debian freeze somewhere between January and March.

It'd be nice to hear from the release team if this was what they were
considering...
