Definitely arb6-release-candidates. arb5 code is more than 5000 revisions behind. > > The stability of the rc1 is much higher > > than when we did the 5.0, so I feel very much at ease with it.

You can stick to that.

It's only the latest test of the release automation we use now. Please wait for arb-6.0-rc1 But the codebase is nearly the same, so if 5.21 works for you, 6.0 will most likely do as well.
