Thing seem to have gone pretty well from my perspective.  I am noticing the block chain seems a bit cleaner right now. PoW is low, yet no flash miners!

Still have a few older version connected, but they don't' seem to be causing any issues.  So the next big test will be at block 6.0 million.

Also I will begin working on the 1.5.6 which will be more internal changes and a few external. And then few more PoS mining changes. I think it will be around block 6.5(maybe 6.4) million where we will move to longer block times, and perhaps a few other forks at that time.  In the mean time, just sit back and enjoy a bit smoother ride!
