[racket-dev] Release for v6.0 has begun

From: Ryan Culpepper (ryanc at ccs.neu.edu)
Date: Mon Nov 25 09:35:02 EST 2013

I was going by the comment at the top of 
/racket/src/racket/src/schvers.h, which says

   X.Y.Z.W
   ...
   Y>=90 means that this is working towards {X+1}.0,
   and X.Y (Z=0, W=0) is an alpha version for {X+1}.0

I can change the version number, but if it's causing problems, let's 
figure out the rules that we want and change the comments too.
