It is frozen for features but we have hundreds of commits to review for
potential bugfixes that need to be included in 2.0.x.

We have tooling that looks at everything that happened in master and
then asks us if a given commit is a new feature, a bugfix, ... and then
bugfixes are cherry-picked into stable. When we're lucky, that works
without changes, when we're not, we need to manually re-apply the fixes
to the older code base.

That can be a pretty lengthy process that requires quite a lot of
concentration, so not easy to do on the side :)
