 I see that x.6 releases seem to take longer than other point releases.

 I suppose that this may be because of how TUV makes changes during a
 life-cycle e.g. that the x.6 release is their last chance to sneak in
 support for new-hardware which then makes things harder for the sl wizards
 to beat into shape...

SL 5.6 is late for two reasons

1 - We had RHEL 6.0 (a major update), RHEL 5.6 and RHEL 4.9 all come out in a short period of time.
2 - The installer gave us trouble.

I didn't mean to imply that it (or any release) was late. Sorry if it sounded like I was meaning that.
