How to upgrade to Emacs 24.1?

emacs24 seems to bring quite a lot of minor improvements over the last version. I know there are already ppa's to easily install it but are there any chances that it will be backported to ubuntu 12.04? where should I make a request or should I make a request for this?

also does anyone know what version is shipping with 12.10?
