Freeze Policy

To remind what is the process during the latest release process, the Freeze.

Contents


[edit] Introduction

The freeze process is the last step before release, where only critical bugs allow for a new package income, and latest string corrections may arise for translations.

[edit] Package upload

Upload is restricted to critical bug fixes, security fixes and hardware support. Details at Development/Howto/Maintainer.

Some packages may be uploaded also for ISV's agreements.

[edit] Translations

Full String freeze is supposed to appear with RC1, but as marketing drives some comments, new strings may appear between the RC1 and the release.
