Could somebody please poke the necessary folks to get the promoted from -proposed to saucy-updates so we can please end this caper? I'm in the basement cafeteria at work so I don't have kosher IRC access until I get home in six hours or so. This fix is past the minimum time to marinate without going kaboom.
