Bug Description
Subject: partman-
Rejected:
Not permitted to upload to the RELEASE pocket in a release in the 'FROZEN' state.
This is bogus. The whole point of a pre-release freeze is that you can lock down all uploads except for the ones that are necessary to fix showstopper bugs. If there's no way to let through uploads for showstopper bugs, then there's no point in having the frozen state at all. Please change this to make uploads to a frozen distrorelease land in the unapproved queue, which would be much more useful.

Furthermore, the binary handling of FROZEN is also now incorrect. For a frozen distrorelease, binary builds should be attempted and accepted, just as if the distrorelease were in development. Only sources need special handling, as outlined above.
Currently, binary builds aren't even being tried on a frozen release, which is just plain useless.
