Uhm,

Kirben, for my taste those recent backports (HE, Windows platform, 
Simon MD5) are going a bit to far -- those are big feature backports, 
not just small isolated bug fixes, some with rather deep impact (Simon 
MD5 removes targets, for example). The main idea of having a 0.6.x 
branch is to be able to backport important bug fixes, and then be able 
to make a bug fix release, *if desired*.
Neither of those "backports" qualifies in that category, though....

If we end up backporting all our 0.7.x changes, there is no point in 
keeping a separate branch...

In any case, I'd prefer to see a 0.7.0 release next over a 0.6.2 
release, so maybe this discussion is moot :-)



Just my two cents,

Max
