We are at least a quarter away from a 5.3.0 release. And history has shown
that a .0 release does not have much production friends and there will be a
transition phase til 5.3.1 to 5.3.3. That said we can only close the branch
to security only once we have a new stable branch.


Best regards,
 Marcus
