Yes.

Uploaded.

No, it is not automatic. A so-called "binNMU" is needed. The official
way to trigger one is to submit a bug to the pseudo-package
release.debian.org (reportbug is your friend).
I can also directly trigger binNMUs without going through the release
team, and I do so with OCaml packages when the need arises.
I'll wait a few days for the packages uploaded today to be built before
scheduling what needs to be done (so don't bother the release team with
binNMUs now).
