If somebody do the release engineering, 5.6 will be released in the future. If somebody have an interest in coding features, he will develop new branch. There are many nice patches (features) in the patch tracker but they will be lost with a time. Where are TK Soh, Nathaniel Gray, Thorsten Haude, ....? Who will maintain their patches (features)?
