Backports are for new versions, not bug fixes. In this case even as this is a new version, the use of an older version of the game client with a new game server version could bring issues to users, so that makes this release more of a "bug fix release", because we are trying to avoid any possible problem to our users, not because we want to have the latest version of the game. If we leave the current version and then a user reports a problem while playing the game, the 0.6 or 0.7 or whatever version is available at the time would be pushed as an update, not as a backport. -- Juancho
