[pypy-dev] starting a release cycle

I am thinking of pushing out what I guess should be PyPy2.7-5.6.0, we released PyPy2.7-v5.4.0 on Aug 31 and PyPy3.3-v5.5.0 on Oct 12. Are there outstanding branches that just have to be in this release or issues that we consider blockers? Would someone else like to pair with me for the release so they could do the next one? FWIW, I tick off the boxes on http://pypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/how-to-release.html, not too hard really. I started a release notice http://pypy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/release-pypy2.7-v5.6.0.html, edits are encouraged. It is a bit dry/formal, for what is quite a leap forward in terms of stdlib2.7.12, cpyext, OpenSSL, ... Matti
