-With 1.5.12 we have entered the time for heavy testing of the development version. We already believe that it is basically as stable as the 1.4.x stable line and thus name it 1.6rc, also known as "release candidate for 1.6". This version will very soon become the new stable line so you are encouraged to upgrade to it.
