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 &quot;that 
package got in, so why not this...&quot;

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.
