Mostly bugfixes. The new features since rc5 are (searched and copy-pasted 
the new ones from the NEWS file):
+ /UPGRADE now saves server->version
+ If available, send who set topic and when to irssi-proxy clients
+ New default aliases: MANUAL-WINDOWS, EXEMPTLIST and ATAG
+ Added transpose_words, capitalize_word, downcase_word, upcase_word
  key bindings

And while I'm at it, the bugfixes that are new in rc6:
- Fixed /WHOIS -yes (Bug 67)
- Make /JOIN -tag #channel and /JOIN #channel<space> switch to that
  channel (Bugs 13 and 93)
- Fixed readded (changed) hilights being in config twice, resulted in
  duplicate hilights or removed hilights coming back (Bug 39)
- Fixed messages to @#channel showed *your* nickmode, not the one of
  the sender (part of Bug 80)
- Fixed /KNOCK support
- Fixed own nick changes in irssi-proxy
- Fixed /HILIGHT -actcolor -mask (Bug 131)
- Recognise a param of signal_emit/continue in perl script if it's int
- Fixed bug 120 where proxy doesn't set the server_rec->away_reason
- Fixed /join -invite -window bug if there is no invite
- Fixed bug with time settings where hours actually returned 60*hours
- Fix multiple entries for local IP in /etc/hosts prevents connecting,
  patch by eridius (Bug 167)
- Fixed a bug with /me, use the right arguments for 
  "message irc own_action"
- Update our own nickrec->gone flag on /away <reason> or on /away
- Fixed output of /hilight (add a space after -levels if any)
- Add libtool's -module flag to get built properly on all platforms,
  by Toby Peterson (Bug 212)
- Don't apply emphasis on _foo_^ if it's a nick (Bug 52)
- Fix displaying of ctcp userinfo and clientinfo (Bug 222)
- Remember alternate_nick and max_whois on reconnect (Bug 181)
- Fix tr_TR locale problem for glib2 (still a bug with glib1.2)
  by David Pashley
- Fixed pasting not using the character translation (Bug 151)
- Fixed a bug where the channel list to join/rejoin on reconnect
  gets too long, not all channels will be joined. (Bug 108)
- Print glib errors nicely, by David Pashley
- Handle ^Z better, by David Pashley
- Fixed /eval recursion crashing, by David Pashley
- Fix notify with more nicks than max_whois_in_cmd (Bug 257),
  based on patch by Krzysztof Kowalik (Borys)
- Fixed irssiproxy sometimes missing (parts of) lines
- Fixed remote /WHOWAS
- Parse negative time setting values, makes it possible again to do
  /SET server_reconnect_time -1 to disable reconnecting

That's not entirely complete, but it's most of them. But for example not:
- Fixed bug with logging where item names starting with the same string were 
not logged properly.
(Which isn't in the NEWS file because it was new in rc5, not in 0.8.9)
