I agree with John. In addition to 0.6.2 being a bugfix release, there is also the question of developer time. We already have too few developers to make fast progress on new releases. If we start back-porting changes from 0.7.x to 0.6.x, then we won't get much done at all. The situation would be different, I think, if we had someone to carefully back-port features and tested them.
