Thanks!

The hard deadline is November 5th - but is a "now it's too late" date.

Honestly I don't really know how it interprets into "how late can a 
project release be to get included?" - here are some more details in 
case you are curious (but I guess for an outsider to Debian procedures 
it is even harder to figure out what it says): 
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2014/05/msg00000.html

Essentially it boils down to "Real Soon Now...!" :-)

(also, I am involved in maintenance of 400+ packages, so I will quite 
likely be slower to react and process new material as we get closer to 
deadline)
