It's Feature Freeze Friday. The window closes at 5PM, so get your
last-minute feature patches in now.
As previously noted, work should continue on tracker issues and reactive
bug fixes. We may accept two anticipated security-feature patches from
Daniel Franke. There may be a bit more slack around the Python stuff,
as that would not risk destabilizing core code.
One small change: while deadline for design proposals on /etc/ntp.d
has been met, I doubt I'm going to have time to do the resulting
merges before 5PM while giving the task the care it merits. Therefore
I am, albeit reluctantly, declaring "RFE: make location of /etc/ntp.d
configurable" (#385) and "RFE: Support /etc/ntp.d (#204)" in scope for
working on during freeze. With luck we'll get all that resolved in
the next couple of days.
