Hi,
I have gotten several (private) follow-ups asking whether 2014 is a typo
or not. Obviously, it did not help that there was a typo in the freeze
policy listing 2013 in some places (they should now all say 2014). So
to clarify:
"""
We will freeze the 5th November 2014, which is about thirteen months
from now (i.e. next year).
"""
