Feature freeze before end of life cycle ...

More like unexpectedly extended life cycle without the required patches to the hardware. Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_expectancy, a "feature freeze" around 35 would probably be no big deal duing the stone age, given that you could expect to reach an age of 54 if you managed to survive the first 15 years. Perhaps, it would act as an element of stability. In our time, you can expect to reach an age of more than 70 or 80 years quite easily, depending on where you live.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
