Clarifying Unseeded Universe Freeze

[Kate Stewart]

Dear Ubuntu release team members, 

  On the #ubuntu-release IRC channel today the discussion of when should
the unseeded universe freeze came up today. A proposal was made to
freeze it 36 hours before the final images are published. 

The precedents that exist in our current process documentation right now
are:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReleaseProcess

      * Work with universe/multiverse community to identify delegates to
        approve Feature Freeze Exceptions, in addition to ubuntu-release
        until the date of Final Freeze for universe.
      * Set the Final Freeze date (typically at release minus 5 days)
        for universe/multiverse for the packages that are NOT found on
        any installation media. 
      * Universe/multiverse delegates and final freeze date is broadcast
        to ubuntu-devel-discuss and ubuntu-devel-announce. 

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FinalFreeze
        
        * For packages in universe that aren't seeded in any of the
        Ubuntu flavors, this final freeze is nominal; packages must be
        manually accepted by the archive admins, but no additional
        approval is required until the Unseeded Universe Final Freeze.
        
Have I missed any other references to the Unseeded Universe Freeze that
are relevant?

What do others think?   pro's/con's of moving from 5 days to 1.5 days?

Thanks, Kate
