Where I work we make the distinction between a feature freeze (where you
can't add new features or functionality, but you can fix bugs to your hearts
content), and a code freeze (where things only get changed to fix show
stopper bugs).

I presume that the current gnome freeze is more of a feature freeze than a
code freeze?
