Thanks.

I'll update the upstream commits and do testing tomorrow.

I want our current 2.0.1 to be released to xenial-updates before we push that security update, but that should happen tomorrow so we'll be fine.

How long do you need after I have the final upstream fixes until we can push the new version out?

I plan on providing:
 - Fix for CVE-2016-1581
 - Fix for CVE-2016-1582 (requires CVE-2016-1581 to be applied first)
 - Upstream release tarball for 2.0.2 (and matching GPG signature)
 - Source package for the Xenial upload.

I'll take care of the Yakkety upload myself once the Xenial one is out (I'll bundle a few more packaging changes in the yakkety one).

It's the first time that we do a security only release so it's going to be pretty manual on our end (can't rely on our github/jeknins tooling as it's all public) but it'll be a good experience to see what can be automated should we have to go through this more frequently.
