All I meant is that until the actual freeze, master and emacs-25 were equivalent. Now they no longer are. I'm sorry to have created so much confusion, I assumed too much about our collective Git habits. Next time I'll "cut once", and it will be frozen from that moment forward. I had feared I wouldn't be available to do it at the right time, so I did it early, expecting to allow changes from master until the cutoff point. Now that all that's done, we're back on the right footing. I'll make a wider announcement later today. Thanks for your patience, Eli, John
