2.29 freeze update: Last fortnight

[Siddhesh Poyarekar]

Hello folks,

We are into the last fortnight of the 2.29 freeze and as far as I can 
tell all blockers with the exception of the ChangeLog script and the 
strftime change have been dealt with.

How is the progress on the strftime change?  It would be nice to wrap it 
up this week so that we can declare a hard freeze for the last week.

As for the ChangeLog script, it need not adhere to the hard freeze given 
that the script is independent.  However we do need to agree on the way 
forward for it so that we can do away with the ChangeLog entries for 
2.30 development and see how it goes.

Anything else that needs attention?

Siddhesh
