I don't think it is possible to just stop development just because a 
package has been approved. There isn't even a new build system yet,
so please let us just continue to do development in the old build system 
until the time that the infrastructure is actually ready to
do the move. I don't think such a freeze between approval and move would 
buy us anything, really. Or do you want me to
wait for reapproval after any change I do post-merge, too ?
