I assume that there is no more work for mysql-5.6 planned by the
MySQL team, given the silence on this bug and that you are about to
upload mysql-5.7 (cf #837615).

As I need to have a MySQL 5.6 backport supported for the foreseeable
future, I intend to NMU a new upstream release in the next few weeks.

Does anyone have any objections to this?

Thanks,
Dominic.
