If anything, it seems like a great reason to try to get 9.5 out BEFORE we open the tree for 9.6/10.0/Cloud++. While there were technical issues, 9.4 dragged a considerable amount because most people were ignoring it in favor of 9.5 development. So far, I haven't seen any features for 9.5 which would delay a more timely release the way we did for 9.4.
