Hi,

I realise everyone's waiting for news of the freeze (we're working on 
it...) but please bear in mind that this is not an appropriate use of 
the Urgency field:

   * Urgency high to beat the freeze.

As mentioned in the last mail we sent to d-d-a (and several at various 
points before that) if you have serious concerns that important updates 
to your package won't be included in the release, the correct approach 
is to talk to us, not try and work around us.  The net effect of the 
above is more likely to be that the urgency will be overriden on the 
britney side as if the package had been uploaded with a lower urgency.

Regards,

Adam
