I'm not sure where the 2-3 years is coming from, but again, I see no reason why we wouldn't be able to push .NEXT out within a year (if it's just phpng along then actually a lot less, but I'm allowing time for extra features we may want to put in). As a matter of fact, I don't think we can even entertain a 2-3 cycle, it will be way too late to market if we linger for so long. This is the assumption we should take IMHO, and only branch 5.7 (and more importantly, invest time in it) if it proves wrong.
