we are not doing daily images for Mir, but this might be a good idea when
we get closer to the MIR for Mir. However, I don't know how involved the
creation of an ISO is and thus can't make a commitment.

Saucy is the main target and should be used for any type of evaluation,
Raring is a lesser supported development platform (see
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/mir-devel/2013-June/000193.html)

There is no plan for backporting Mir to P at this point.
