Either is fine by me.

I think that's all wise.  I'm very much in favour of keeping both at  
the moment.  My experiences here with trying to upgrade a test 3.4  
instance 3.6 have not been very smooth, or successful.  I think we'd  
be inviting a world of pain if we try to remove 3.4 in the near  
future.  Also given the sorts of environments in which people tend to  
use RT, they are likely to want parallel installations of both, and  
we should probably just provide a script to help people move data  
from one to the other when they're ready.

I'm not on the list yet, I don't think.

I'm a wee bit busy at the moment with work things that are not RT  
related, but I'll have a look as soon as I can find the time.  Can't  
really promise a timescale at the moment.
