Swade: Carrara 5 wasn't released in May 2006, it was released in December 2005. The following are the release dates for Carrara during the Eovia years: Carrara 2 - June 2002 Carrara 3 - September 2003 Carrara 4 - October 2004 Carrara 5 - December 2005 If Daz was going to continue this trend (release every 13-15 months) we should see Carrara 6 being released between January and March 2007. I believe this is probably not going to be the case because of what someone mentioned before: the developers were busy releasing the Universal Binary version of Carrara 5 for the Mac. The other thing that might slow them down is that they could also be the same team that is fixing bugs for Hexagon (since the team that developed Hexagon was not part of the Daz deal).
