I WAS using it a lot, but use 6.4 and 7 more now, and we are using it in our modeling work. But this is because it was supposed to be the roadmap to GRASS 6.4.2 and we wanted to make sure that all of our modeling worked with the final GRASS 6.x series. 6.5 has diverged from this to some extent, though most of its code is in 6.4.2. So it won't be a problem to me or my lab if it goes away.

Personally, I'd just kill the 6.5 branch. If something is too major to

I am also not quite sure about the need of the 6.5 branch?
For me it is sufficient to have 6.4 as production system and 7 as
experimental system.Honestly, who's *using* it as a user?
Because: yes, it can (could?) be branch to be used for testing but
I actually don't know anyone who really uses 6.5 for work.
Please tell us if you use 6.5 for work to understand if this branch is
really needed.Markus
