Judging from the challenges I've seen on the list here, it doesn't seem to me like 6.5 is what I would call "Stable" yet.

We have around 140 systems on 5.5 that our HP support personnel want to get updated to 6.5 by year end.

Since 6.0's end of support is only about 12 months away I think, no one wants to do this twice.

I'm not sure how we can reasonably avoid the bleeding edge here...  And that seems incredibly risky to me.

Am I just paranoid?
