 ### Feature Freeze
 
-Ahead of any minor version release of Tendermint, the software enters a two week
-'Feature Freeze'. A feature freeze means that _no_ new features or functionality
-are added to the code base. The Tendermint team instead directs all attention to
-ensuring that the existing code is stable and reliable. Broken tests are fixed,
-flakey-tests are remedied, end-to-end test failures are thoroughly diagnosed and
-all efforts of the team are aimed at improving the quality of the code. During
-this period, the upgrade harness tests are run repeatedly and a variety of
-in-house testnets are run to ensure Tendermint functions at the scale it will
-be used by application developers and node operators.
