thank you (and freexian for funding you) sooooo much for finally reaching this
milestone!! Thank you also for doing all your work with incredible diligence and attention to detail. This is really outstanding and what I consider to be a
model for how changes in Debian should be performed.
Your upload timing seems to have been great: the buildds seem to already have gone through most of what you uploaded.
I cannot wait for the next dinstall in ~5 hours to test what you uploaded with
the mmdebstrap test suite (which is also testing debootstrap).
Too bad that it is just these days that snapshot.d.o is moving to the new infrastructure (a big thanks to the team who is working on that) which means that this crucial transition in unstable will not be part of snapshot.debian.org. There are no timestamps recorded for June yet.
Thanks for bearing with me and also thanks to all the people (release
team and affected package maintainers in particular) who support this
work.

Thank you for doing this work. I have rarely seen a change of this
magnitude in Debian that was managed on this professional level. I
especially praise the way you have communicated the progress.

100% agreed. The care and excellence that you've brought to this work has been exceptional.
Let me chime in with all of the people that have been amazed at your
depth of analysis and your commitment to implementing the *properly
right* situation. It cannot be overstressed that, for this release
cycle, one of the main reasons Debian will probably keep its honor
badge of being easy and reliable to upgrade without breakage is the
work you have taken as yours.
100% agreed. The care and excellence that you've brought to this work has been exceptional.
Very much seconded, you have my thanks added on the stack! :)
