I'm trying to limit my proposal to the releases from the stable team (the "sucker team" as I think Linus originally called it). Sure, 2.6 is still the stable series, for whatever that may be worth, but the incremental releases from the stable team are limited to bugfixes that are already in the tree for the next release (or security fixes which get applied to both stable and head). My point is that the changes from the stable team are tiny, whereas the changes between Linus's releases are large.
