+1 When I saw Nick's email about branch_6x being feature frozen, my first thought was that we don't (and really can't) feature freeze the stable branch -- isn't new feature development (for the next minor release in the current major version) the entire purpose of branch_Nx? A feature freeze on a specific minor version does make sense. I've seen a couple of people say that we have, but there are also a few messages from people saying that they want to include new functionality in 6.0. I expect that backporting almost anything from branch_6x to branch_6_0 will be relatively easy, so it may be a good idea to just create the new branch.
