Agreed. In my view, the best solution is to make two bugs lists, one for 5.4 
and one for 6.0. Then I volunteer to manage the 6.0 bugs, changing grass57 to 
grass60 where appropriate. Bernhard, would this be possible?
BTW: where do I find the total number of bugs?

or, old and unreproducible bugs could be just squashed?

Right. But it is also necessary to get rid of the rubbish, otherwise we'll 
scare new users away (and, in my view, what grass needs now is a larger user 
base).

All the best.
