I think I should clarify. From what I understand, 5.4 is the last release in the 5.x branch, and when 5.4 is released, 6 will become the STABLE branch for the next RELEASE. 4 still has a STABLE branch, and I'm sure 5 will after that, too, but the next releases will be developed on 6.x. I wish I could find the message, think it was in the current list ... Anyway, if this is wrong, someone please correct me. - jt
