As you'll have seen, 8189761 was posted a few hours after your e-mail.
My thinking was that we'd tag -b02 once these three pending ones were in.

Given it's the 1st on Monday, I'd expect that to be the freeze point. I
don't see any other critical fixes waiting for approval. There is a
further update coming from Oracle with the final Japanese epoch, I
believe, but I can bring that in with the security fixes if need be.
