Weekly Promotions #4 Discussion

[jdong]

This is a new idea: Instead of tracking each TESTING Backport topic to update promotion status (which is a pain for you guys to follow, too!), I've decided to have a stickied thread every week, with a list of packages in -staging, and what packages are/aren't going to be promoted.

You guys can add feedback on my list, tell me about testing and such.
This is going to be for Backports Weekly #4, which is ~ 1/14.
