This release is not meant for production and is not published on WordPress.org.

Earlier this year, Trackserver had some security issues that needed urgent fixes. However, due to many changes in the development tree (both committed and uncommitted), these fixes could not be done on the master branch, and instead were done on the WordPress branch directly, causing a rather severe split between both branches.

All of these changes have been brought into the development branch, including the changes made for the latest release on WordPress.org, v5.1.1. So, if you look at the master branch, you might think that you are looking at v5.1.1, but that is not the case. In fact, quite some changes that target the next stable release (probably v6.0) are already on this branch.

To avoid confusion, I am now tagging the current state of the master branch as v6.0-pre. Please do not run this tag in production!

There is still quite some work to be done before v6.0 can be released. I am really trying to my best to do this as quickly as possible, but development is slow, and will remain slow for now. Thank you for your patience.
