My sense is we had general consensus that merge requests for new 
features which are already in flight and in an advanced state can be 
merged after the soft feature freeze, but before the hard feature 
freeze. But no new merge requests for Plasma 6.0 features can be opened 
after the soft freeze, unless they get an exception.

Does anyone disagree with this?
