Yes, I forgot to mention that idea. > I think that is the idea.

For a user it's becoming messy to understand which version to choose. Hamish: >> I had some things I wanted to get done before 6.4.0-final, I added/ >> commented on a couple in the trac system yesterday, and I'll add a few >> more as I can remember them ;) Well, it's unrealistic to hope that we resolve all bugs/enhancements. I suggest to get out 6.4.0rc1 asap for reality check (especially also for the Windows port). If backporting becomes to heavy, we could even re-do the relbranch in future.
