That is, extra features, performance enhancements, or upgrading for the sake of upgrading will not happen in RELENG_4_6. Even if there is a critical fix, I would expect that the bug would be fixed directly in the existing code rather than import a whole new version just to get one bugfix. -- Crist J.
