Great to hear, thanks Ian.

Well, I think we'd have regretted it if we'd have rushed 2.6.0 into
Fedora and EPEL. A good number of bugs and regressions were squashed
thanks to the testing and patches from all the good folks here. If we
can update from 0.25.5 to 2.6.6 and make it smooth for the users who
don't follow this list so closely, we'll earn some favor for future
updates that may have a few incompatible changes.
