Most are already done, but need to be updated (from pre-release versions).

That was a couple months ago, and I have done some more since then.

And see:

A benefit will be, for example, that X.org 7.1 release may only be 
updating five small packages, and the many others probably will stay the 
same. This will be quicker and easier for the packagers and end-users.
