While I noticed Chris's displeasure at the lecture, *I* didn't know
that. Not having been exposed to Rawhide until about two weeks ago, I
would have expected the "unfreeze" to happen *on* the release date of
FC3, not a couple of days earlier.

Of course, I can see the point since now that the code is being
distributed and the mirrors are being populated, there's no point in a
Rawhide freeze any more. Didn't see it coming and wouldn't have
predicted it, but can understand it.

Spoon-feeding the Rawhide newbies with a quick one-line announcement of
such events is a totally unnecessary little detail, which would
nevertheless be gratefully appreciated if at some point it occurs to
someone to do something like that.

Cheers,
