This raises an interesting point. The success of Drupal over the past  
year will mean that there will be much more demand for support of  
4.6. In the context of a DrupalCamp type of lesson plan, 4.7 only  
makes sense -- after all, it's geared towards new development, new  
users, and/or new sites. But while 4.5 faded rather quickly, I  
suspect 4.6 will linger much more, and depending upon future upgrade  
paths, 4.7 could linger longer still beyond its own "expiration date."
