I am no maintainer so I cannot tell which Org revision should be merged
with Emacs.
FWIW, considering the 15 days time frame we have, I think 8.2.3 family
is stable enough (modulo some features that might be cherry picked from
master) and would be the obvious safe choice for a quiet end of year.
8.3 release (i.e. built from master) has some interesting features, but
may require more work from Org developers during pretest phase.

That's true. Nevertheless, with the package system, I would say we
already have a good coverage at each release.
OTOH, I think that Org versions bundled with Emacs should focus on being
rock solid.
