Thanks for bringing this up. In case you landed stuff in utopic only
that was supposed to also go into RTM and you didn't plan to diverge
your trunk for rtm and utopic, just approach the landing team, request
a landing team and request a landing of those packages already in
utopic and they will help you get that staged in an ubuntu-rtm silo.

If you landed in utopic please ensure the stuff you also wanted to
land in RTM gets into that branch this way! Hope that clarifies things
and helps you to catch up things in RTM branch!

Thanks!
