Sounds good.

Answered on IRC, but basically sounds like both cases can be handled as
regular SRUs.  Find an SRU admin to work with and they can give guidance
on specifics that they'll need.

Offhand, both sound like viable changes to SRU, so hopefully it'll go
smoothly.  If you run into problems or if it drags on to > 1 week, let
me know.

Looks like wayland decided on breaking abi for their 0.99 release, so it's 
going into the rename bin instead.

Makes my life easier though, renaming is slightly more work but less chance of 
breaking stable.

Now how do I get the paperwork in place for getting the x11proto and apt 
updates to precise?
It's blocking the upload to precise-proposed right now.

Hm. I obviously wasn't clear about what I was thinking here. I was
expecting libdrm.so.2 → libdrm.so.2ltsq. That (should be) just a matter
of changing the version passed through to libtool, and shouldn't require
futzing with anything else - things linking with -ldrm will pick up the
right library.

...which might make this easier.

Since it seems you've already sorted out the libdrm_lts* problems its
probably not worth the effort to re-do this. Sorry about that!
