+For years, the freeze never impacted our own tools since unless
+packages we are not upstream, we prefer to release than patch
+(which also helps get latest translations).
+Now, drakx* stuff got blocked.
+
+So I would request we relax the freeze for our own stuff.
+else It'll made pushing fixes quite slow &amp; painfull.
+
+In worst case, instead of pushing the stack in ~30mns, it may
+takes days.
+eg if I fix sg in urpmi, I've to wait for someone to actually push urpmi
+before asking to push drakx-installer-stage2 with new urpmi.
+
+eg if I fix sg in rpm, I've to wait for someone to actually push rpm
+before asking to push perl-URPM to drakx-installer-stage2.
+
+It can become way more painful for eg:
+dietlibc fix&gt;kmod|ldetect&gt;drakx-installer-binaries&gt;drakx-installer-images
+eg: if would fix sg in dietlibc for kmod.
+Thus I would have 4 requests with delays between each.
+
+Or enable me to push new perl-URPM/urpmi/drakx* like I was able to
+do in the old days
+
+We're not that many working on our tool bugs to let us die
+of slow pain...
+Pushing fixes in the installer usually involves many stages...
+
+In the meantime, please let go in:
+
+1) drakxtools:
+- english message improvement (mga#456)
+- diskdrake:
+ o fix error on removing LVs
+ o fix resizing LVs (mga#4666)
+
+2) drakx-installer-stage2:
+- explain why acpi, acpid &amp; mageia-gfxboot-theme packages are selected
+- install more packages earlier (shorewall &amp; mandi), preventing useless
+ installing steps later at summary stage
+- partitionning:
+ o fix error on removing LVs
+ o fix resizing LVs (mga#4666)
