period of time regardless of whether the conditions of the restriction
were met or not.
Also, the current policy does not in fact constitute an unbreakable
roadblock. It seems to be being ignored in current discussion, but it
contains an exception clause:

it's short, but it's there. You can get an exception to the policy with
majority approval from FESCo. Technically speaking, no update is
completely blocked by the current policy.
