OK, this works.  If you have signed the CA, then you could set the
version of your package to some pre-release version, using a 

 ;; Version: 1.0-pre

header, and as soon as you are ready to publish just remove the -pre and
the package will be automatically published + a new release will be made
any time to bump the header.
