Ah okay. I think the reason this is becoming a firedrill now whereas it never was before is that this hasnt always been an alpha criterion, maybe only the past 2-3 releases. Traditionally we'd considered ourselves in super bonus awesome shape if we had something for alpha; we shifted our schedule earlier to do this regularly to get more feedback on the artwork.

 The artwork was ready to go during my leave (3 weeks agi) so I'm not
 sure what broke down here - I checked before the readiness meeting
 and the packages had been built. So what exactly is the issue?

It seems like the maintainers of the other packages
(e.g. desktop-backgrounds) that enable the default backgrounds in the
various desktop environments weren't aware they needed to update their
packages.  A couple people told me they thought this had happened in
the last release, although I don't recall it specifically.  So I'm
just looking for a way that everyone involved could get notified at
the right time to do their part.

That being said, Ray Strode had an idea that might make a fallback
easy for
later releases:
