Some components like Qt 5.0.2 and other like libhybris and telepathy 
stack are not in saucy yet. I think the platform team and Ricardo has to 
update them soon (it's an action that was taken at previous vUDS).
We need to have the points I listed in my email fixed first, having at 
least one or two daily release where all tests passed, then, switching 
is just a parameter away.

I hope that we'll get that before end of month.

That's why I'm speaking about commits to mainline, so yeah, only the 
commit that can be seen in bzr log (without any nesting commits) are now 
taken into account (I was taking care of deep commits before for getting 
the bug numbers). So we are aligned! Feel free to edit the wiki page if 
it's not clear enough :)
