The freeze will probably last 2-3 weeks, depending on the state of our code base on how easily bugs are found. During this period, only bug fixes are allowed. For those of you working on new features, worry not. After 1.97 is out things will go back to normal, and this doesn't preclude patches from being pre-approved as "ok after 1.97" during the freeze.
