I wonder if we should sort of re-do the 6.3-release branch. I am not
aware of incompatible changes within HEAD yet. Maybe it is better
to branch off again (say, to bulk merge from HEAD/trunk into the
existing branch) to catch recent fixes for 6.3.0.

The general scope should be to fade out 6.x *development* (keep maintenance)
and focus on GRASS 7. Given our limited resources, I don't see an
alternative.
We all would like to make so many major changes to GRASS that
this cannot happen in the 6.x line but in 7.x only. So let's start!
