FeatureFreezing

In the release protocol CreatingDists, it is intended that at there is around one week's feature freeze ahead of the 'Hard Freeze'.

(Ben) Note that though virtually every HOWTO on open source software describes these stages in the release process, Inkscape seems to be uniquely punctilious (or shares with the Debian that honour) in observing (or at least documenting the observance) of them.

Whilst I am probably happier than most in using 'process' to ensure software quality, we ought not to go too far down that route!
