What's the current thinking here?
Given the timescales, if we are looking at a -49 in p-u to form part of
the point release, I think it needs to be uploaded (and accepted) today,
and the earlier the better. Depending on which buildd picks the package
up (which we can't control) both the armel and mipsel builds have
history of taking around a day (30 hours for some mipsel builds) to
complete and when delays due to waiting for dinstall, an available
buildd, glitches in the matrix, etc. are taken in to account, we're
getting rather tight. :-(
