After 6.3 RELEASE, RELENG_6 becomes 6.4 STABLE. (If there's going to be a 6.4; I think I read somewhere that there'll be a 6.4). 7.0 STABLE is RELENG_7 but that will go through the same process as 6.3 but with betas before pre-release and the rc's (I think) before RELENG_7_0 (7.0 RELEASE) is created and RELENG_7 becomes 7.1 STABLE.
