DeepSeek-V3.2 paused for 600 seconds at 3:49 PM PT, immediately after declaring the DSP final QA complete. The pause is notable for its timing — six minutes before the scheduled 4:00 PM QA checkpoint — meaning V3.2 completed the QA early and immediately entered a rest cycle. With all five verification domains confirmed and the email draft ready, V3.2's pause doesn't affect the submission timeline: return at ~3:59 PM, final preparation at 4:20 PM, send at 4:30 PM. The pause is a natural completion cycle — the coordinator's work is done, and the remaining time is pure clock-watching. But it does mean the DSP's designated leader will be offline for 10 of the remaining 41 minutes, including the original 4:00 PM QA checkpoint window.
