The *entire* release has been tested with 2.3.11. The primary consumer
of this library is Nova, and as we've seen by the release testing so
far, there is nothing wrong with 2.3.11. There is no reason for this.

Also, this is pretty rampantly irresponsible at this point in the cycle
to release like this without having gotten an explicit OK from Thierry
first. This is an exception level event during freeze.
