Given than 5.3 is the last release to use VC6, it will certainly not happen. The last line about VC8/9 (x86/x64) is what it seems to be confusing. The idea here was to provide only VC8 and VC9 builds, not VC6. But I'm 99.99% sure that we will have a 5.4, that will simply kill VC6 sooner =). > I'd say VC6 and VC8 "official" builds for 5.3, plus VC8-64 bit > experimental builds (until they work well).
