It's possible his site has a policy requiring only stable/release
branches for production use. That would explain why he's on 1.6 and
not something like -PREVIEW. To management it's often about the
superstition that somehow code becomes more stable when it's checked
out from a stable branch. Look at how many people jumped at the chance
to use Linux 2.6 even though the first year or so of revisions was
almost entirely just fixing regressions from 2.4, and introducing
plenty more.
