@Michael - The real v3.6 might come out very soon, or it might not come out very soon. Sometimes, companies just skip a number that they crash & burn on ... sorta like a memorium. "Sorta like 3.6, eh? What 3.6? Exactly."

Nah; v3.5.2, if it does call for an interpretation, is to show that the WordPress crew has been discharged from the psych-trauma ward and have resumed normal activities, like work. We're in the saddle, bright-eyed & bushy-tailed, and tending to our user's real interests, (like security).
