=== What was done engineering wise? ===

  * Made printing via AirPrint from iOS6 work
  * Webapps finally landed in the image
  * GNOME 3.6 updates
  * Debugging Evolution's loading of webkit plugins
  * Unity 6.6 stack update, with compiz, nux, unity, libunity, lenses 
and the new shopping lenses.
  * The X stack is fully up to date (see the package status report) and 
nearly complete for this release. We still await release of the final 
mesa 9.0, and may pull in a few minor updates (e.g. -nvidia 304.51).
  * -nvidia experimental drivers have landed in quantal. SRU of these to 
precise is in progress.
  * Rebuilding my Xorg q-backports stack
  * Working on upstream dma-buf synchronization patches
