Dear colleagues,

        <qandaentry>
          <question>
            <para>How long is a ports freeze?</para>
          </question>

          <answer>
            <para>Usually an hour or two.</para>
          </answer>
        </qandaentry>


However, for at least last couple of 4.x and 5.x releases, ports freeze lasts
for one to free weeks. Possibly, time to update the guide?

Sincerely,
D.Marck                                     [DM5020, MCK-RIPE, DM3-RIPN]
