Erm, wait.

And currently, the state of deep freeze we are in means translation updates supposedly aren't eligible for unblock requests anymore anyhow? So what exactly does this NMU achieve, beside a glaring lack of communication and proper process, and inventing the stunning new concept of -3 day NMUs? <imagine a string of harsh expletives and a broomstick here> Please don't ever do this again without talking to me first. Surprises like this aren't helpful, and ignore the fact there may be^W^W are other patches which should be considered for a stable update under more relaxed rules than the current deep freeze state.
