As many of you may remember, we freeze for version 2.20 tomorrow.

Here's the plan.

I'm probably going to wait to enforce the freeze until late in the day 
because several people seem to have major projects pending that are 
this[]close to landing, and would be very painful to suddenly put those 
on hold for 2 or 3 weeks.  But nonetheless, freeze starts sometime tomorrow.

I'd like to release 2.18.1 and 2.19.3 this coming weekend.  To make that 
happen requires a bunch of volunteers to help out with website updates, 
release notes, and getting a status update ready to go and so forth. 
I'd like Max Kanat to coordinate that, so get with him if you want to help.

The blocking2.20 flag has returned.  If you know of any bugs that you 
think should be considered to be release blockers, please request that 
flag.  I expect the release of 2.19.3 to generate a lot of new 
blocking2.20 bugs.

We'll create the 2.20 branch, release 2.20rc1, and reopen the trunk as 
soon as we get all the blocking2.20+ bugs dealt with.  hopefully that'll 
be within a few weeks.
