I believe that we've already agreed that there are features going into the
source tree currently that are prompting a 7.0 release...I have no qualms
at all about holding off the next release until Apr/May, as long as we
continue with what we've started, and that is back-patching appropriate
changes to the -STABLE source tree and putting out a minor release
periodically...

I'd like to stick with the next "full release" being 7.0 ...
