I've received the same question.

And, as of the moment of typing this email, I get:
=# select '2024-04-08 00:00-12:00' - now() as time_remaining;
 time_remaining
-----------------
 13:10:35.688134
(1 row)

So there is just a bit more than half a day remaining before the
feature freeze is in effect.
