Well, 17891, 17892, and 17893 are NOT bugfixes. Could the committers explain why these changes were checked into a frozen trunk?
Probably they were not aware of the freezing. Devs in charge of those revisions, please revert those changes or explain how they are bug fixes.
Well, after Casper told me that Freeze process was never voted on,
It was voted on IRC and through your appointement as TC, as outlined on the Wiki.
I guess this whole excersice is pointless.
No, it just proves that some people are willing to play with your mind and discourage you when they don't like something, even though the ENTIRE team is backing you on this.
I was told to maintain my own stable release branch and "work on improving our development processes instead".
One person's opinion versus 10 others which agree with the freeze.
Consider TRUNK unfrozen. Have fun with your bugs, I'm going to enjoy my weekend.
I'm sorry, but I'm not going to let someone trash you down on IRC and overrule your (and the other devs') decision. TRUNK must remain frozen as decided. You're not the only one who made the decision to freeze it, others backed you, and you can't just unfreeze it like this without everyone else that froze it agreeing. This is a typical rule of common voting, and it's been originally made so that someone couldn't get bribed into making a unilateral decision after a group of people made one :). In your case, you were intimiated.
