That's a very separate issue.  I was asking about the policy  
reasoning.  Fixing all of the bugs affecting my environment won't help  
me until they are -RELEASE, which is going to a take a lot of  
resources.  A lot more than supporting 6.2, right?  If not, please  
educate me.

And please stop being nasty.  I'd said much the same thing over the  
last 5 days, but I haven't once uttered a word about you not reading  
what has already been said repeatedly.  Nor does that topic interest  
me.  I am curious about the policy issue involved here.
