FYI, there is a current plan for UbuntuGIS Stable ppa to get the latest 
released packages from OSGeoLive 9.0 and UbuntuGIS Unstable ppa to get 
the packages from OSGeoLive 9.5 (which got input from DebianGIS) when it 
reaches RC status.
Of course when GRASS 7.0.3 is released, it will land in UbuntuGIS Unstable.

Best,
Angelos
