[ANNOUNCE] feature freeze

[Leopold Toetsch]

As originally proposed by Melvin Smith, we gonna have a "Halloween 
release". Its not so much "Nothing fancy, just something fun. :)" - A 
lot of things did happen since the last release. Not really milestones, 
though - nevertheless the rather big list of improvements[1] justifies a 
release.
* Feature freeze is from now Oct, 29th 8.00 GMT until
* Code freeze starts at Oct, 31th 8.00 GMT

During feature freeze, only core patches WRT building, testing, 
warnings, bug fixes and the like should go in (languages/* aren't affected).
