OK.  Thanks for letting me know.

No problem.  I work on the LTS and ELTS teams, but I do not have a
specific role with the Security team.  That said, if one of the members
of the Security wishes to perform the upload, that is fine by me, or I
can go ahead and upload the package I have prepared.

Ordinarily a security update like this to stable is coordinated between
the package maintainer and the security team.  Since I prepared the
patches for LTS/ELTS before the security team got to it in stable and
since those patches applied cleanly, I went ahead and prepared a package
to save someone else having to duplicate the work.

So, to be clear from my side, I am happy to upload the package and
publish the DSA, so long as someone from the security team gives the OK
first.

Regards,

-Roberto
