In other words: If you have a feature that requires a new dependency or a version of a dependency that is higher than currently checked for in the build system, you need to have committed this change before this date.
All translated messages (GUI strings) are frozen on this date. Only previously untranslated strings or clear errors in strings can be fixed. No major new strings changes should be done. You cannot add new strings, if you really need one ask kde-i18n-doc for an exception. It is ok to remove strings.

To allow the bindings people to have proper time to do their work in preparation to the final release, the API should now be  fixed. Changing API is allowed, but commits have to be cc'ed to the kde-bindings mailinglist. This is including older APIs and newly introduced libraries/APIs.
Only bugfixes from this point on. Bugfixes needing user visible text changes need approval from kde-i18n-doc@kde.org

Frozen: no changes to new dependencies, UI, features, artwork.
