Hopefully the latest report before telling "it's in saucy now".

Good progress, everything built, fighting a little bit of vala to get 
gdrive done (thanks Michal and Martin!). Removing indicator-network for 
now from the stack we'll ship as it was making unity-panel-service 
crashing, it wasn't going to be installed by default yet anyway. We 
finished the pre-NEW and pre-MIR reviews as well (for all the parts that 
will be pulled by the Unity with 100 scopes, meaning scopes + what is 
pulled by hud2). As hud is building on armhf with touch support, it's 
pulling libhybris, the platform api, sphinx and so other small bits like 
gtester2xunit, we prereview the MIR for them so that we can have a 
smooth upload (and got some surprises, thanks Colin and Lukasz for 
helping patching some components). Some finale MIRing is still in 
progress by Michael and Lukasz.

The upload itself will include a bunch of archive admins mechanic: 
basically approving all the components we already pre-reviewed, a lot of 
new package binaries as well and reviewing the new ones from touch that 
are not that urgent as not in main and installed by default (touch apps, 
media components...) + promotion to main for all components prereviewed 
for MIR. We expect that will take a couple of publisher cycle in 
-proposed to get the main promotion right in case we forgot anything (we 
shouldn't, but just triple checking).

We still have one blocker IMHO to have a usable Unity 7 with 100 scopes 
in saucy: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/1188191. Michal is 
working on it. Once we get the fix we'll rebuild and rerun the relevant 
tests.

For all those reasons, we think it's preferable to act on the upload 
tomorrow morning early (yeah a Friday upload... but a well tested Friday 
one! ;)).

Note that all trunks for daily releases are though still frozen to keep 
the current state as is. I'll release the lock as soon as we publish to 
distro.

Cheers,
Didier
