Feature Freeze day arrived! Ocata-3 has been released, so it means<br>
that no new features will be allowed to current release... The only<br>
patches approved to be merged should be: release critical or gate<br>
blocker.<br>
All outstanding features, that would need to be landed into Ocata,<br>
will need to receive "Feature Freeze Exception" status.<br>
<br>
>From now on, we have one week till RC1.<br>
Please double check release notes and make sure everything is in order.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
