This is not something we do very routinely, so I'd like to confirm: if these 
binNMU's are triggered for stable-security, do they still end up in the 
security-master queue so they can be released in a coordinated way?

I think if so we can then send a -2 DSA announcing the availability of these 
packages (-2 because we 'normally' announce any such to-be-rebuilt packages in 
the same DSA -1 as the base package).


Cheers,
Thijs
