Does this happen every time we do an upstream release? I thought it was fairly automatic.

I can have the release script signal someone, or something, if you like.

Sorry Seb for subscribing you, I'll take care of this one.

Thomas: select members of the Desktop Team are on GNOME's ftp-release list and add new items to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/TODO - new revisions have to be prepared manually and checked by team members. In this case Pedro has prepared the new version and I'm going to check and upload it once it's OK. If there's anything else you'd like to see automated, let us know. Thanks for your interest.

Pedro in the 003_workspaces_default_name.patch you dropped the following comment.
- * Above name is a pointer into the Workspace struct. Here we make
+ * Above name is a pointer into the Desk struct. Here we make

Apart from that it's OK.
