We are not switching anytime soon. I have not looked at what they did to the syntax (hopefully nothing). There is really no advantage for us and most likely it will break things.
If are starting from scratch it might be OK. I guess it depends on your needs for library support.
IMO it was a bad idea to split development like they did. But I am just a user and not in charge. :)
If it was me I would pick 2.6
