So, please take this time to do any last minute testing and bugfixing and make sure any packages you expect to be in the final f40 base repositories are pushed stable before next Tuesday (2024-04-02).
I was just wondering, and someone else with me, if today's updates would still make it in time?
If not, I thank you for the reminder nonetheless, but would also like to ask to have it sent in time for updates to still be able to land in the release before freeze happens.
Of course, there's always the option of going around begging for (instant) karma ...
You still have a week until next Tuesday, so...yes.
We are one week down the road. I've submitted an update a week ago shortly after Adam's reply was sent (March 26, 21:48 UTC). Final freeze is now in effect and the update[1] has *not* made it to stable. It's still in testing.
Luckily, this update can wait until after freeze. I'm glad I decided to ask for karma for another update submitted earlier the same day.

Yes, 7 days between end of beta freeze and start of final freeze is not enough to land an update that has autotime=7days. Which is really annoying. Maybe next time we can make the non-freeze period last like 8-9 days? One week (especially if that week contains the Easter holiday) is not enough.
For the record, FESCo reviewed a request to extend the non-freeze period and decided that we would take on the burden of going through the Freeze Exception approval process rather than extend the non-Freeze period (which would have necessitated extending the F40 schedule).
These updates are certainly candidates for Freeze Exception consideration, so please raise them as such via https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/propose_bug
