I've advocated a partial freeze before, but I've been convinced over time that they're generally unhelpful. If a committer has good code to put in, trunk should always be allowing it.
As a followup, I'd like to qualify this statement with "use common sense." The middle of a release cycle is *not* the time to begin restructuring vast swaths of code, stylizing every last line, or merging branches. It just makes merge conflicts more likely and increases release/deployment overhead.
