From an HFA perspective:
R60 HFA04 = R61 HFA01 = R62 and R60 HFA05 = R65 per an SK article.
The tech meeting I was at where R65 was discussed leads me to believe that
R65 will be the most supported release after R60. R61 and R62 addressed
niche needs in improved management (in my opinion). R65 is supposed to have
a plug-in architecture where new features can be added without going through
a major upgrade. VoIP also had significant improvements especially where NAT
is involved.
I'll be moving my boxes from R61 to R65 around the end of the year, even if
no HFA has been released for it yet.

Subject: Re: [FW-1] benefits of upgrading to NGx R65 versus R60, R61 or R62
Date: Thu, 30 Aug 2007 18:05:13 -0300
Hi,
i had a NGX R60 in production and i upgraded it o NGX
R61.
after that i discovered that it would be better to
apply hfa to R60 then upgrade to R61, because there
are many issues that hfa 2 from R61 does not solve and
hfa 5 from R60 solves - for instance : msn malformed
packets dropped; voip (sip, etc ..) malformed packets
dropped;
someone told me that R61 with hfa2 compares to R60 hfa
4
good lucky
