I clarified the "supported" status on the release pages. 2.5.5 is now
marked as unsupported, as that is our policy for many months now. The
2.5 series doesn't get security updates anymore. See
http://plone.org/products/plone/security/advisories/cve-2008-0164 for
the first CVE that didn't see a hotfix for Plone 2.5 anymore.
