[cancelled] [vote] Declare the signed source for r809832 as 6.0 M1

[Mark Hindess <ma...@googlemail.com>]

This vote is now cancelled.

I agree.  We need to understand/document/fix class loading issues and
the version string.  I've a patch for the latter but I think the former
will take a little longer.

It was good to attempt a 6.0 release but I don't think we should keep
the code freeze going any longer so I suggest we attempt 6.0M1 when we
produce 5.0M12.

So consider the full code base re-opened for commits.

Regards,
 Mark.
