I don't normally rush when it comes to upgrading services. MySQL 5.6 has been \
recently released and I prefer until the RPM package has been included in most YUM \
repos and it has been throughly tested. I still remember how painful was to install a \
new system with MySQL (5.5 I believe) under Ubuntu last May. I had to report a bug \
and make some tweaks in order to get the mysql service installed.

Regards,

Miguel
