That would work, but I said from the beginning that I don't want the
christmas holidays to be in deep freeze as it's the time of year where
many are bored by parents and want to hack :)

The only way the freeze can be hardened without beeing in freeze over
christmas is forking 3_2_BRANCH now and that's no good idea either if
you want bugs to be fixed at all. People will go for new features then.

Greetings, Stephan
