This is not because Georg is the master.  When a release is nearing we
think it is important to avoid introducing potential regressions,
except when fixing existing bugs.  That's why we have a feature freeze
which extends to many kinds of "enhancements", including performance
improvements: really, it is more of a "bugfix-only period".

One could propose other mechanisms for release preparation, but in the
meantime, it is important as a community that we all follow similar
rules.

Regards

Antoine.
