*Troy chuckle as he shakes his head*
Sorry Max, but no.  Christmas isn't even on the radar.
For a normal minor release (such as 5.6) we usually get things out 
around two months.
For a major release (such as SL 6.0) we are expecting it to take about 4 
months.  So expect the final release in March.

That being said, we are not like CentOS.  We will release Alpha, Beta, 
and Release Candidate releases as we progress.  So you will have 
something to use before then.
