If this is a divergent branch, then why would you call it 2.9? 2.9 is linearly derived from 2.6, not divergent IMHO.
As it is, if there IS an announcement made on the site PLEASE be damned sure that the article is VERY clear from the get-go that this is NOT a replacement, but a divergent branch. Please, please, please!
