Yes, that's a good point :-)

>From HISTORY :

2000-02-19: Version 0.01
2000-07-25: Version 0.6
2001-01-18: Version 0.70
2001-06-02: Version 0.80
2001-08-06: Version 0.90
2002-02-10: Version 0.99
2002-04-07: Version 1.0.0 one month later :
2002-05-09: Version 1.1.0
2003-06-01: Version 1.2.0 a "little later" :
2004-01-04: Version 1.3.0
2006-04-30: Version 1.4.0 a "little later" :
2007-01-07: Version 1.5.0

So from what we see, my impression was right, after a stable release
it's a long time to start a new devel...

Maybe the solution would be to give stable responsability to someone
else like Linus do a solution ?

Any solution that will be choosen will be fine for me :-)

What I like with the idea of a 1.6 now is that it will help the
inclusion of multiproto into the kernel, and what I dislike is that it
will certainly slow down the H.264 integration...
