The very few packages that were out of sync between testing and unstable got very special attention (a little more than usual). Most maintainers were contacted, and responded very positively either to the proposed earlier migration or to the proposed “let's wait a little” approach. The other ones weren't contacted because their packages were either too young (so they were too late regarding the hard freeze anyway) or almost ready (so they insta-migrated as soon as I lifted the “udeb freeze”) — cryptsetup, libpng1.6, lvm2, during the 16:00Z britney run this Friday. > That being said, the release team has agreed (should it be needed) to > have at least one britney run between my unfreezing udeb-producing > packages, and implementing the hard freeze. I'm not aware of any other packages that might have been caught up in that last-minute “udeb freeze”, but feel free to reach out to me if you think I've caused any problems.

Thanks to the maintainers I contacted and answered quickly and nicely, thanks to those who might have been affected and decided to wait it out, and to the release team for the leeway they were willing to give.
