Questions about today's freeze (from Niklas, Roan, & me in IRC):
on what -- all of trunk? core? wmf extensions?
Definitely core. Probably should apply to wmf-deployed extensions too. I think non-deployed extensions can continue doing what they're doing.
So does that mean you have to stop adding features when Friday starts, or ends? i.e. is Friday the first day of the frozen state, or the last day of the non-frozen state?
Let's give until midnight UTC, end of Friday.
Are we enforcing this in any way within SVN, or are we just agreeing to quickly revert any new features or refactoring commits that come in between now and [date]?
No changes to access -- there's still legit reasons to commit things such as followups, regression fixes and the like.
Remember everybody: we're calling this a "slush" and not an actual "freeze." The idea is to at least try and get trunk feature-complete so we can make the push in CR.
