I'm happy to build and upload a package, but I don't neccessarily want to go
through the trouble of checking out repos, writing announcement emails,
and updating the website. So someone wants to do the paperwork? :)

I ran out of time when I built the other updates, and I could not really upload
it anyway before the others are published (well, I could, but we wanted to
avoid drawing attention for abit) so I have not prepared it yet, but I can
upload it in the next few hours.
