    I've  seen  several such questions these days. And I fear, if
    I'm not able to get at least  the  required  catalog  changes
    into  7.0,  I'd  have  to  wait  until after 7.0 freeze + CVS
    branch before I can start at all.  That'd cost  us  too  much
    time.

    I  know  that  I  can  deal with a bunch of deferred patches,
    staying in sync with CURRENT and having new features only  as
    patches.  But  that  worx only as long as I have most catalog
    changes in CURRENT. One single concurrent catalog change  can
    cost me days of work in the worst case otherwise.
