That's what I'm doing. We wouldn't be rolling out a new platform for
several months yet. I decided to go with 5.x because of the better SMP
support, and because of some of the newer security features (like
filesystem ACLs) among other reasons. I'm also using it at home with
excellent results, and I'm sure that it will be productionable sooner
rather than later considering the excellent work being done all around.
