Now that it is August 1, we are in feature freeze.  During the next
month, all outstanding patches will be reviewed and hopefully applied.
After that, we will start preparing for beta, hopefully to start in
September or October.

Many community members were disappointed that feature freeze took so
long, but based on the number of features added to 8.3 our feature
freeze duration was similar to previous releases.

I think our only big mistake was setting expectation that this would be
a short feature freeze.  We can be proud of the 8.3 release.

Since we recorded feature freeze as April 8, 2025 0:00 AoE (anywhere on
Earth):

	https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_18_Open_Items#Important_Dates
	https://www.timeanddate.com/time/zones/aoe

and it is now 2:34 AM AoE, I guess we are now in feature freeze.

Frankly, I think the name "anywhere on Earth" is confusing, since it
really is "everywhere on Earth":

	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anywhere_on_Earth

	Anywhere on Earth (AoE) is a calendar designation that indicates
	that a period expires when the date passes everywhere on Earth.

I find both of the above needlessly confusing when we instead could use UTC
which is a more universally understood concept.

We did have this discussion when AoE was chosen for PG 18 and the idea
was that as long as it is before April 18 midnight wherever you are, it
is not feature freeze yet.

Indeed, that's what the "U" stands for, after all. :-)

Well, they kind of did this by saying midnight on April 8 AoE, rather
than end-of-day in April 7 AoE.  Actually, I had originally said April 8
AoE and then was told I had to specify a time --- maybe the time was the
mistake, and we still have April 8 to add features.   ;-)

I always forget if AoE is UTC+12 or UTC-12.  "Anywhere on Earth" sounds to
me like it means "the first moment it's this time anywhere on Earth," which
would be some point during April 7th for me.  So every year, I go to
Wikipedia, which reminds me it actually means "the moment this time has
passed everywhere on Earth."  At this point, I can finally convert to UTC
and then to my own time zone in my head.

If we just said April 8th, 12:00:00 UTC, I'd immediately know that my
entire April 7th was fair game.  Of course, I hope to usually be done
committing things much earlier...

One isn't supposed to think "is the freeze on everywhere", just "is the
freeze on for me" and "is the freeze on for this particular contribution
(check the date header)".
