Bits from the Release Team: trixie freeze dates

Hi,

Trying to follow our release cadence, we are going to start freezing trixie in March. As usual, it is our intention to have a short freeze, though with the short notice that may be hard. We apologize for not coordinating this way earlier, and ask everyone to help fix release critical bugs in order to achieve that.

2025-04-15 - Milestone 2 - Soft Freeze
2025-05-15 - Milestone 3 - Hard Freeze - for key packages and packages without autopkgtests
To be announced - Milestone 4 - Full Freeze
