The GA date for NetBackup 6.5.3 is slated for the late November. This
change in date is based in large part on customer feedback from 6.5.2.
We are focusing most of our efforts on increased quality and
integrating fixes as well as allowing sufficient time to test these
fixes. The release update should only contain one new feature,
Exchange Granular Restore.

There is a "First Availability" program for 6.5.3. Those customers
currently signed up will get access to 6.5.3 about a month earlier
than GA. We are currently over-subscribed for that program and aren't
looking for additional participation at this time.
