Hi David, thanks for putting this straight. It was actually my fault not to tell Tom this for v6. I think the release cycle was a bit too long, too many new features. I also think I need to concentrate on v6 now for new features -- going back and forth between v5 and v6 for development releases is sometimes quite confusing, at least to me ;)
