If there is an official release of source (e.g. 2.5.5 and 2.5.6) why
aren't binaries produced (other than to make it really hard for users
and force them to upgrade to a later major revision -- 2.6, 2.7, etc) ??
Unofficial answer:
A. Binaries are a lot of work.
B. Security releases are primarily for servers.
C. Security releases after bugfix is over is better than nothing (the
old policy before 2.5).
D. You are welcome to pay someone to produce one for you.
