I will be attending DebCamp and DebConf, and during those couple of weeks can spend some focused time helping get these newer versions into unstable. Especially with Reinhard staging a lot of this in experimental, hopefully there won't be anything too unexpected or problematic. We're about six months out from the trixie freezes starting. I think that's more than enough time to complete these transitions and be confident adjacent dependencies haven't been accidentally broken in some manner.

I don't think I've seen a Go Team BoF, but I did add a Go Team listing to the sprints wiki page: https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/24/Sprints. Mathias
