Hi,

I'd like to propose that we have a short XE 2.6 release. The rationale is that 
we've been developing lots of new features in the past releases and I think 
it's time to stabilize what we have. By stabilize I mean:
- fix bugs
- homogenize UI
- clean up stuff (refactoring, etc)

In addition we have 2 features we had planned for 2.5 which have slipped and we 
could finish them in 2.6 too (Sergiu said he was almost done with the "Email 
this page" feature and didn't have the time to slip it in the 2.5):
- Email this page: Sergiu
- Recent Activity (refactoring of Recent Changes based on the Activity Stream): 
Raluca + Caty + JV to apply the patch

The idea would be to have the following dates:
- 2.6RC1: 1st of November 2010 (there's no M1)
- 2.6 final: 18h of November

If we agree, is there anyone who'd like to be the release manager for this 
release? If nobody volunteers I can do it.

If we agree, I'll send another mail afterwards with some ideas for XE 2.7 and a 
potential XE 3.0 release. Note that XE 2.6 would be a first step in stabilizing 
XE for an upcoming 3.0 release :) But even without this vision doing a short 
stabilization release from time to time is always a good think I believe. It's 
also not too long so that people don't need to hold new stuff for too long.

Here's my +1

Thanks
-Vincent
