Regarding Ubuntu, the Debian Import Freeze is set to the 25th of June.
After that date, packages can be synchronized upon request until the
13th of August.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicReleaseSchedule
Currently, nearly all (i.e. except 3 packages) are on 3.11.0.
According to your planning, it would mean that OCaml 3.11.1 would be
uploaded now (12th of June) and all other packages rebuilt after the
23th of June. It could break the current OCaml status on Ubuntu. I
don't know if massive rebuild of packages (binNMU???) is possible on
Ubuntu.
Why do you think of this?
Of course, I would very much have OCaml 3.11.1 on Karmic but that
might be difficult to do in such a short time frame.
Yours,
d.
