Hi Release Team,
In the next few days upstream will release chromium 6 in the stable channel. This means that v5 will not receive any further (security) update, and v6 will receive security and stability updates. I could start to backport patches, but unfortunately there are some important webkit security issues (SVG related) that are hard to backport due to at least one or two major refactoring[1] of the SVG code. This means that any future SVG security issue (and unfortunately they are frequent) will be hard to fix. Therefore I kindly ask you permission to upload chromium 6 in unstable.
