-The **PHP backend** is the default predictions processor as it is written in PHP and does not have any external dependencies. It is using logistic regression.
-
 ### Python
 
 The **Python backend** requires *python* binary (either python 2 or python 3) and [moodlemlbackend python package](https://pypi.python.org/pypi?name=moodlemlbackend&version=0.0.5&:action=display) which is maintained by Moodle HQ.

 - Issues are picked on a one by one basis, prioritising [QA blockers](../testing/qa.md#resetting-tests) and main regressions (MUST FIX) issues.
-- After freeze (usually 6 weeks before release) any non bug fix issues are given the `integration_held` label and are explicitly not picked for integration. Still, anybody is able to add a reasoned `unhold_requested` label to those issues in order to get them unblocked by the development managers. Note this does not guarantee the issue to land before release, but just gives it a chance to be integrated like any other issue.
+- After freeze (usually 5 weeks before release) any non bug fix issues are given the `integration_held` label and are explicitly not picked for integration. Still, anybody is able to add a reasoned `unhold_requested` label to those issues in order to get them unblocked by the development managers. Note this does not guarantee the issue to land before release, but just gives it a chance to be integrated like any other issue.
 - Also, coming together with freeze, all the flow of issues to current integration is automatically controlled by the [Manage queues on continuous](https://ci.moodle.org/view/Tracker/job/TR%20-%20Manage%20queues%20on%20continuous/) job that keeps the current queue fed with issues, moves important ones, holds new features and other niceties. Issues are picked in strict integration order.
 - Our goal is to achieve 'release-ability' throughout, so we stop integrating to ensure a release happens
