Exactly.

The first step would be to update upstream/sid from master at
git://git.zarafa.com/zcp/zcp.git by doing a fast forward merge.

Then you can merge the 7.0.5 release tag into debian/sid. That's should
be all.

This assumes we're skipping dfsg-clean/sid for now since we don't remove
any content yet.
