It's not getting ridiculous. This is _VERSION_FREEZE_.
It's normal during distro release process.
If it wasn't important enough to import/update before the freeze, it's
definately not important enough after.
And technically _any_ new package can make a mess up a system with
wrong provides/obsoletes/conflicts, broken %pre/%post scripts and so on.
And if we start going letting things slide we get the debate "that
package got in, so why not this..."
So, focus now is not to get new stuff into repos, but testing/fixing
bugs reported on bugzilla, and also test upgrades from Mageia 1 and so on.
We have only ~1,5 months before the planned Mageia 2 release.
