Speaking with my Riptano hat on, not all our customers are going to move to 0.7 immediately and we plan to continue to provide support for 0.6. I suspect this will result in enough activity to justify a 0.6.7 release with some additional improvements of the sort you've seen in 0.6.5 and 0.6.6, but after that you're probably looking at bug fix releases only, should the need arise. -- Jonathan Ellis Project Chair, Apache Cassandra co-founder of Riptano, the source for professional Cassandra support http://riptano.com
