I have to admit I've lost track of time a bit however the calender says
Milestone 3 (M3) finishes this week and that marks "feature freeze" for
the release. Beyond this point we have M4 which which is targeted for
bug fixing only, no extra features and no package upgrades in general.

Judging by the number of package upgrades on the list in the last few days not everyone saw this, so I'll repeat it just to make sure:

Milestone 3 is closed, so OpenEmbedded-Core is now Feature Frozen. Version upgrades are considered features. So, no more version upgrades from now unless you have an *awesome* reason.

I'll be occasionally collating the version upgrades that get sent into a "later" branch for basic testing but obviously the focus from now until release is stabilising, fixing, and releasing. It's probably preferable to sit on any upgrades you were doing until we thaw so they can be sent against master instead of needing to be rebased.
