I put the changes into svn to be able to make an upload if it is
necessary and possible. So I second the statement of Kurt about the
freeze. If you want to have it in testing soon, talk to the release
team. If they say ok, please tell us and one of us will do a build and
and upload, now that the changes are in svn.
