   \begin{itemize}
   \item Since \code{2.6.0}, kernel developers have been able to
     introduce lots of new features one by one on a steady pace,
-    without having to make major changes in existing subsystems.
-  \item So far, there was no need to create a new development branch
-    (such as \code{2.7}), which would massively break compatibility
-    with the stable branch.
+    without having to make disruptive changes to existing subsystems.
+  \item Since then, there has been no need to create a new development branch
+    massively breaking compatibility with the stable branch.
   \item Thanks to this, {\bf more features are released to users at a
       faster pace}.
   \end{itemize}
