Why all the fuss about 3.4.90 ?

3.4.2 will NOT have more features that 3.4.90.

Why would people want/need to downgrade? The ones that are already using our 
binary snapshots wil continue doing it and will get 3.4.91 and so on.

The ones that do not use our binary repositories will get 3.4.2 and that is a 
big improvemnet over 3.4.1.

I do not see the 3.4.90 binaries being a problem. And it's not confusing:
-3.4.90 is always and will always be better that 3.4.2
-3.4.2 will (when released) be as good as 3.4.90, what is the problem with
  that ?
