That's a good reason to focus on .5 ;)

I'm not convinced that back-porting my scripts to the .5 tree (auto-release
gets triggered only when me or toad change the version string in
Version.java) is worth it... So we will KISS:

- Forget about .6
- I've disabled the auto-builder so that you can commit/do whatever
  needs to be done without breaking everyone's node
- You will have to ping me (possibly off-list as it doesn't concern the
*current* version of freenet) when you want a build to be released.

Please don't assume things in the future, just tell me what you want to
do and I'll do what is needed server-side :)
