[Qgis-psc] The inevitable question: extending freeze for 3.0?

[Andreas Neumann]

+1 for pushing the feature freeze back from Mid August for at least one 
more month. End of September would be a reasonable date.

I am also in favour of having more than one month for bug fixing before 
we release 3.0

There are so many changes that went into the 3.x (master) branch and 
there will be more than usual bugs. So I am afraid that one month of bug 
fixing is not enough to get a reasonably stable and useful release.
