Reminder to devs: with the release of 0.2.9-RC2 we're now in code freeze for the branch. During code freeze, the only allowed commits are bugfixes to release-blocking bugs. These fixes are generally discussed on the mailing list prior to committing a fix.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something here, but these rules seem to contradict themselves.
According to the rules : We don't move from Feature Freeze to Code Freeze until, and I quote "the testing coordinator indicates that all blocker bugs in the release branch have been fixed"
I interpret this as, we move to Code Freeze, when and only when all blockers have been fixed.
We then dictate that "During code freeze, the only allowed commits are bugfixes to release-blocking bugs"
If all blockers must be fixed before we move to Code Freeze, and we can only commit bug fixes to free up blockers during Feature Freeze, what is the actual point in having a Code Freeze as we will never have any blockers to fix.
I hope that reads ok.
