How many of the last "long" freezes have happened because of bad
software and how much has happened because other issues caused
composes to actually test not to be created? We "seem" to spend a lot
of the freeze working for an actual working compose before we can
actually see what is going on in with the software that people want.

Would it make more sense to just have the Freeze not start until we
have a bootable compose? [I realize this is a overflowing stack
recursive loop if not defined adequetely define bootable but if QA
can't test an install until week 2 of the freeze.. we weren't ready to
freeze for packages.
