That is correct. As RM presumptive (but perhaps someone else would like to be RM, and eliminate my presumptive status? There's still time :D ), my plan for this period would be to push any enhancements that might be submitted only after bugfixes have been dealt with. Ideally it will be possible to get all submitted enhancements pushed to Master during this period, but given the volume of patches that can precede a release, at my discretion I may delay large features until after the release of 3.10.0. Paul and I discussed this at length, actually. I originally suggested not pushing any large enhancements to master (i.e. 3.11) during the 3.10 feature freeze, but Paul (quite reasonably, I think) argued that not pushing enhancements that were sitting in the queue would not serve to get those developers working on bugfixes, but rather just result in a heavier burden on the RM for 3.12 once 3.10.0 was released. As a compromise, any enhancements that can be pushed will be, but anything that gets in the way of the more important bug fixing will not be pushed until 3.10.0 has left the nest. Hope this clarifies.
