Uhm I'm not in a position to allow or deny an exception here, I was just
telling Krysztof what it means that the feature freeze wasn't lifted
after the release and the warning for the feature freeze was more than a
week before it actually happened (when the 3.5.7 release schedule was
announces). The freeze wasn't lifted since it was activated last, so I
don't think a warning would have been needed that its now going to stay
until the end of all worlds.
