Debian Developers intend to freeze development of their current
x86 version of Debian, code named “Potato”, on November 1st.

The original news release at Debian weekly news is
here. Once
a Debian distribution has become frozen, usually only packages with
serious bugs are upgraded, as Debian is being prepared for official
release. No prospective official release date for Potato has been
mentioned.
