Hi,
Due to the new "TIMESTAMP options" feature not completely implemented yet, I will release today 2.6.2-beta1. This means a feature freeze, except for completing the new feature this week. It should touch only 2 or 3 scripts. 2.6.2-rc1 should follow one week later.
I suggest creating the 2.6.2 branch only when -rc1 is released, unless someone has an urgent need for starting 2.6.3.
Another point for those who are not following sf.net upgrades; they mention this: "MySQL database version upgrade, centralized phpMyAdmin: MySQL database services will be upgraded to MySQL 4.0.x. At that time, we will begin offering a centralized phpMyAdmin service, allowing projects to more readily maintain their project database."
