I think there are two reasons Plone 2.5 is targetting CMF 1.6 (instead
of just going to CMF 2.0)
  1) the risk that CMF 2.0 wouldn't be ready when plone -- and I'm
pretty sure the 6 month release rule has already been adopted for Plone
with Plone 2.1 -> 2.5 trying to be the first 6 month interval
  2) CMF 2.0 changes too many things -- because of the plethora of
existing plone products out there and the pains that people are going
through porting them from Plone 2.0 -> 2.1, the Plone community is
striving to not do the same thing going from Plone 2.1 -> 2.5
