Being in unstable during the freeze, then it won't migrate to testing
until the release is done.

I know many people use this via Ubuntu and not Debian directly.
Ubuntu is based on testing. Depending on how long the freeze the
takes then it might migrate just on time to go into the next Ubuntu
LTS (20.04). If it takes too long, then the next buntu LTS to have it
will only be 22.04.

Ok, let’s aim to get a release out ASAP

Tried to make the release but it failed to index. Here's the error:

Not indexed because permission missing. Current registered
primary maintainer is BIOPERLML. Hint: you can always find the
legitimate maintainer(s) on PAUSE under "View Permissions".

Can you fix this?

Thank you

Checking on this; PAUSE’s methods for adding co-maint on a primary umbrella account are a little obfuscated.
