Ubuntu:

Feature freeze is Aug 28th, so realistically, it will be hard to get
anything new into Ubuntu in time. Not impossible though, but you'd have
to get it released and then packaged for Debian before then.


gEDA 1.4.1 should be Ok, since it is a micro-release just fixing bugs,
but even that will require manual attention, and prodding of various
people. (It has to get into Debian first, then get picked up manually by
the Ubuntu people at this stage in the release process).

Best wishes,
