Note: the orange is automated in the spreadsheet logic when all status
are set.

You have the "QA sign off" field in the sheet like in
https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuDk72Lpx8U5dFlCc1VzeVZzWmdBZS11WERjdVc3dmc&usp=drive_web#gid=1.
just set it to Yes if everything went well. If things go wrong, poke the
lander (you have the name in the same sheet) directly to get things
worked on ASAP.

Exactly (as long as the status isn't in an orange color, the request
isn't ready for QA to do the additional testing).
Browsing the spreadsheet requests just to get the right colors takes
less than 10s from experience (we do that to see things that needs
publication for quite some months).
