I don't think it's very useful to paint a very broad brush here,
unfortunately. Some will just polish commits until the last minute, until the
the dot's on the i's really shine, others will continue picking up more CF
entries until the freeze is reached, others will push half baked stuff. Of
course there will be an increased commit rate, but it does looks like there
was some stuff that looked somewhat rickety.
