I'm not actually sure what's best here.  It may be easiest to just throw
them both at 'staging' and accept the (hopefully few) merge conflicts.

Ludo, any preference?

If we're going staging, let's try to coordinate it so that we can start
it shortly after adding them.  Maybe midnight tomorrow or Saturday UTC?
I have a few other updates in my queue that haven't been pushed yet.
