Given the number of broken packages, it's likely to take longer than 
that anyway.

Ubuntu freeze is on the 27th.

If it still works with pandas 0.25 and doesn't break dask's reverse 
dependencies (I have _not_ tested either of those), it can go straight 
to unstable.

If not, either experimental or just pushing it to salsa is fine: pandas 
went to experimental mostly to check whether it builds on the non-amd64 
architectures, and dask is arch:all so doesn't have that potential 
failure point.

(Note that packages in experimental still prefer taking their 
build-dependencies from unstable, i.e. default to pandas 0.25 not 1.0.)
