I think we're agreed here. The tentative plan is we let FC6 go gold,
then when development becomes pre-FC7, we push mock-0.7 into
development. We then figure out some way to force Dan and Jeremy to
use the new mock in the buildsystem and as we fix bugs we up the mock
version until when it's stable, it becomes 1.0 for the FC7 release.
Viola! (or Walla, as we say in the South).
