    Thanks to Richard Jackson, Chris Adams, Thomas Sjolshagen, Tom Smith, Dr Tom
    Blinn, Kjell Andresen, Johan Brushe and Bluejay Adametz.

    They all pointed me to the HP Alpha Roadmap, which announces PK6 for 2006.  
    More specific guesses varied between summer and September.  Some of those who
    responded suggested that I might want to skip future PKs and stick to ERPs
    for things that were broken, as new features included in future PKs might
    bring more trouble than benefit.
