Of course no guarantees.

I'd say the chance that 5.6.1 is not out by the time we release 5.7 is pretty 
slim (their bug tracker seems to be pretty empty in terms of showstoppers, and 
it was already planned for half-May).

Worst case, we'll reconsider our schedule, but I don't think that's going to 
be necessary, we're well buffered, still.
