If y'all need some help to get the FK stuff farther along, a 6.6
release will help on that imho. It takes the immediate pressure off of
the other developers, and they can choose to continue with their
developments or to take a breather and help out the 6.6 release.
The fact that more work needs to be done on FKs etc to enable a 6.6
release is not fatal; that is an issue for every release on one topic
or another.
I haven't heard anything (yet) which would be a show stopper imho, and
I'd *really* like to decouple some of the changes coming up. In
particular, I could commit "join syntax" for 6.6, and then work on the
query tree redesign for 7.0...
