Umm, yes, I see
the 2.6.x.y numbering scheme has the huge advantage that nobody can ever
know if there will be a 2.6.x.2 release (I think it's fairly safe to say
that there will probably useually be a 2.6.x.1 release with _some_ fix in
it) so people can't fall into the trap of 'waiting for the next release'
