It's not nearly as big a gap as between other (n-1).x -> n.0 releases,
so I'd say this time expectation is extremely pessimistic.  However,
time will tell, and if you're not able to deal with the possibility of
bugs in 6.0 then you should at least wait a while until after the
release to see what bugs are reported.
