That's all well and good.

I had held off trying to use 6.0 myself, based on comments from you that 
it was buggy and didn't work, ie, waiting for 6.0.1 or 6.1, which has 
now landed.

Fact is that we're in a bad situation of now requiring something that's 
been untested and it's data is incompatible with what was tested.

I get that.  I was hoping we could do better.  This is just a 
consequence of (1), and not having ample time to adapt to the new stuff.
