Bug description:
  Dear Release Team,

  Regarding Qt 5.2, what has been already achieved:
  - Qt modules built in a PPA https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-beta2, including the git snapshot ones
  - Qt packaging synced up with Debian at least once during 5.2 cycle. Private headers usage dropped from many Ubuntu Touch packages so that Qt modules could drop them too. Most of the modules are syncable from Debian as is, although for PPA building reasons there are bzr packaging branches also for them.
  - ~80 dependent source packages have daily recipe builds from trunks to the same PPA, because of the Qt 5.2 ABI break and libqt5core5 -> libqt5core5a library rename (http://bugs.debian.org/731261)
  - The ~80 packages build successfully both against Qt 5.0 and Qt 5.2, and all unit tests pass. This was tracked at http://pad.ubuntu.com/qt52-dependencies until now the work is essentially complete.
  - Ubuntu Touch mostly works, also the desktop Qt 5 applications work
  - Most of the system integration autopilot tests pass, but there has been found some work remaining.
  - The needed qtbase changes for Unity appmenu support for Qt 5 contributed to upstream - see bug #1157213.

  Key remaining tasks that are being worked upon daily by the respective teams:
  - A handful of unfixed critical bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/+bugs?field.tag=qt5.2
  - Functional multimedia support on Ubuntu Touch - unfortunately the separate qtmultimedia-opensource-src-touch package still needs to be maintained by the Multimedia team to not modify upstream Qt Multimedia too much. This was earlier believed to be dropped with Qt 5.2, but the dropping is now targeted to happen with Qt 5.3.
  - More packaging syncing with 5.2.1, contribute remaining test enablement to Debian, provided by the QA team (most contributed already).
  - Get 'OK' from QA team image validation of Ubuntu Touch using Qt 5.2 - this means all Autopilot tests pass + dogfooding
  - Upload Qt + rebuild ~80 packages in the archive

  Considering all of the above, we'd like you to consider allowing a
  Feature Freeze Exception. Ubuntu is preaching daily quality even
  during the development cycle and so we want to avoid creating any
  regression in any flavor of Ubuntu before pushing it to the archive.
  For that, we'd like to continue working a little bit longer on this
  stabilization before pushing it to the archive, to ensure the upgrade
  will be as smooth as possible.

  The FFe would include the Qt modules listed at the following document:
  https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjuCdq68GSyVdFI4QzNQdWpfME5aMEV2VXo0cUpOMkE#gid=19
  , including the Qt Creator 3.0 + Ubuntu plugin update from the SDK
  team. The other packages need only rebuild since all sources have been
  updated to detect Qt version where necessary and use a different
  codepath accordingly.

  Summaries of main Ubuntu-specific branch changes for packages not to be synced directly from Debian unstable (current status, see the doc linked above for details):
  - qtbase: Additional patches (5 upstream, 1 disabling Ubuntu's overlay scrollbar), small packaging changes that have been selected earlier or are related to Ubuntu's additional architectures
  - qtdeclarative: Additional submitted/backported patches, to V4 etc
  - qtwebkit: Additional backported patches, additional build deps (qtlocation/qtsensors), private headers for webbrowser-app

  At the same time Qt 5.2.1 is being prepared in parallel
  (https://launchpad.net/~canonical-qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-proper), and
  if it works at least as well, it will be used instead. Ubuntu
  developers have worked with upstream to stabilize the new V4 engine
  among else, which is why our "5.2.0" Qt Declarative module is near
  5.2.1 already.

  Build logs are available at https://launchpad.net/~canonical-
  qt5-edgers/+archive/qt5-beta2/+packages?field.series_filter=trusty

  Qt 5.2.0 was a big release, a changes summary is included at
  http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2013/12/12/qt-5-2-released-the-best-qt-
  yet/. Summary changelogs for 5.2.1 releases are found at https://qt-
  project.org/wiki/Change-files-in-Qt-5.2.1 - modules not listed there
  typically have only minor changes. Qt Creator 3.0.0 and 3.0.1
  changelogs can be found at https://qt.gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-
  creator/source/dist/changes-3.0.0 and https://qt.gitorious.org/qt-
  creator/qt-
  creator/source/cdc2a0f72334268684e0407e9b04b3188e00d4bf:dist/changes-3.0.1
