Obviously we need it before Ubuntu releases, but the sooner the better as this is difficult to test in a representative way without the Launchpad changes.

There are also additional changes in the way Ubuntu Backports is run that depend on this change being in place. I need to take them to the tech board for approval and ( inevitably at this point) get a feature freeze exception. The sooner the better from this perspective too as the longer I wait, the harder all that gets.
