Er, yes.

My expectation is:
- 5.2.1 from 5.2 branch in ~1-2 months
- ``current'' would be the 5.3 branch, ~4 months
- ``next'' would be the 5.4/6.0 branch, ~8 months

                   CURRENT                  NEXT

However, given GDB has actually managed two releases in 6 months and a 
recent thread on this list suggests GCC is considering slowing down to 8 
month schedules, now is proably the time to ``re-negotiate'' GDB's 
release schedule.

enjoy,
