Think about who will do the stabilisation. Do you really think Alan or
Marcelo will pick up 2.6 when it comes out? Or do you see someone else
picking up 2.6?

One of the fundamental questions that needs to be asked along side the
"fork 2.7 with 2.6" problem is _who_ exactly is going to look after 2.6.
Dave Jones? If Dave, who's going to do Daves job of making sure fixes
get propagated between stable and development trees?
