 The koji build nvr (name-version-release):
 system-switch-java-1.1.4-1.fc10
Description:
 The above package is currently tagged dist-f10-updates-candidate. I would
 like to see it in dist-f10
Rationale for why the change is important enough to be allowed in after
 the final freeze:
 The translation team has worked hard on getting various translations in
 for the project. I wanted to wait until the last minute to allow maximum
 translations in before making a release (project is on fedorahosted.org).
 I was under the impression that today being the freeze, builds would be
 allowed until the end of the day.
Impact of *not* accepting the development at this point of the schedule:
 Over 20 new translations will not be there for system-switch-java
Information on what testing you've already done on the development to help
 reduce the risk:
 No code changes were made to the project, only translations added. I
 downloaded the built copy and tried out various translations randomly, and
 they all work.
As I stated above, this is more due to a misunderstanding than anything
 else. I deliberately waited until the last minute thinking I can still
 build today, and only now did I find out that the tag is already frozen :(
