    Don't worry about it for at least 6 months...

    There will be several updates and security patches in the next month or so. Plenty of known bugs in the first stable version.

    Also no point in migrating until all the extensions you use are available in 1.6 version.

    Actually converting a template from 1.5 to 1.6 is not too difficult...

    you will also need to rename your module positions and css classes.

    yes agree , unless you are running for tests, a good rule of thumb avoid all version zero software. However you would do the os community installing it and finding bugs and reporting them, a good way to give back to the creators.

    16 does look promising from the test installs we have done.
