No real plans have been made that I know of for a 5.5.1 release. What happens is that 5.5 was cut as, potentially, the last 5x release. Some small fixes are still back-ported "just in case" there's a 5.5.1 release.
As for 6.0, that's something of a moving target currently, we're still flushing out issues that need to be fixed first. IOW, there's no good way to predict when it would be, the 4 weeks is just an estimate. Besides, I always like to be a little cautious about using a X.0 release. the "bottom line" here is that I'd go with 5.5 for the time being. If a 5.5.1 comes out it should be a really simple upgrade to do if the fixes are important to you.
