Ah, that makes much more sense, although I still disagree. If a module
author hasn't found the time to include D6 features over one year after
D6 was released, he'll not find time regardless of when D7 is released.

If, however, D7 was released in June, he'd look at his code again at
least in July and maybe kick out some D5 leftovers.

Cheers,
