Just chasing up on this really. The documentation team met yesterday and
agreed unanimously that a 2 week extension of the freeze (rather than 6
weeks) is a good idea. This puts the freeze on 6 May 2006.

I discussed yesterday with Scott, but haven't heard anything back from
any other TB members: is it ok to amend the Dapper Schedule to reflect 6
May?
