Well, there won't be one. If anything we are trying to move faster. More
frequent smaller releases is the goal. The 3 years between 5.2 and 5.3
was way too long.
So why is moving all new work to PHP6 and introducing a freeze on PHP5.4 such a
problem? In hindsight PHP5.4 SHOULD have been PHP6. We also need to be able to
have stability that we can aim for in production.
Loading up a new set of rework requirements to often just means that previous
work never gets finished :(
