Yes, I know that the difference it's the installation process.

I ask because as I understand, a supperior release it's supposed
to fix bugs on previous releases, but on this case, 2.7.0a1 doesn't
have the bug fixes included in 2.6.2b4, so you can't install the
latest release on a production server. So, why isn't a next version
of 2.7.0 released instead of one of 2.6.2? Won't be the installation
process introduced in 2.7.0a1 (separation of zope binaries from
configuration files and products) the standard for next releases?
