Many the current patches up for stable merges have multiple rechecks which is very concerning to me.  It is nearly impossible to tell if these patches make things better or worse and approving will likely cause many gate resets annoying the entire community.  We're fairly close to having an appropriate workaround, so my vote would be to delay at least a week.

ok, since I'm handling 2013.2.2 I'm making the call: release 2013.2.2
is now planned for Thursday Feb 13th. Freeze stays in effect, no new
proposed changes should be approved, only those few which where pulled
out.

Mark, Sean, do you have a list of issues which must be fixed before we
can declare gate back to normal?


Cheers,
Alan
