List A is the 'unreviewed patches list', which, on Feature Freeze, would be
'closed' ...
Feature Freeze would last until all Patches in List A are processed, whether
that means going back to the Author for fixes/work, or gets committed to the
source tree ...
Once List A is cleared off, then we dive into Beta, at which point in time only
bug fixes would be applied ...
