Just please don’t upload everything at once, following the release team’s recommendation [1] (in order to manage load on the buildds etc.) Also there may be packages which have large WIP changes in git, which are not yet ready for upload. I am not sure how to detect them, but maybe exclude packages which have a new upstream release in git (compared to unstable)?
