Now we know 4.x stands for "technologically outdated" but proven stability, and 5.x stands for new technology, new stable branch. In 2005, 4.x won't lost its actuality, 5.x will be in the mainstream (hopefully), and what new 6.x releases will be stands for? I think, there is no radically new technologies, any improvemens from 6-current could be MFC'ed to 5-stable, so why messing with 6.x releases so early? This is just my humble opinion... -- Anton A.
