[QGIS-Developer] 3.10.0 in hard freeze, should we branch master as unfreeze for 3.12?

[Régis Haubourg]

Hi,
Since the hard freeze tag, I realize that many dev's didn't expect
this to happen this way. The hard freeze concept doesn't seem so
clear.
We currently have some frozen PR that we need (really) to land into
the future LTR.
We did start long time ago for each of them, it is not about late
work. But we must recognize some of those were hard work (like the
parallelized snapping cache builidng thing)
We also have features for the server waiting.
And we must recognized we need more persons for the review process to
speed up the process.

I don't think we can branch now, as it is the first time we play the
hard freeze process for real for a LTR, we have to discuss some
pending PR's.

Cheers
Régis
