If I understand correctly, uploading a new version to unstable
(targeting lenny+1), will prevent you from uploading a minor bug-fix'ed
version to unstable. This means that Lenny bug-fix will be uploaded to
testing-proposed-update... which won't go through unstable for wide
testing.

As far as I can tell, unstable continues as normal. However, nothing
that is uploaded to unstable as of the start of the freeze will be
automatically migrated into testing. 

If I understand correctly, uploading a new version to unstable (targeting lenny+1), will prevent you from uploading a minor bug-fix'ed version to unstable. This means that Lenny bug-fix will be uploaded to testing-proposed-update... which won't go through unstable for wide testing.
