Yes, of course the 6-pin header isn't new per se, but since the new 
AVRISP mkII has only this type, it will be the new standard after years 
of using the 10-pin variant for many of us.

I'm using AVRs almost from the very beginning of their appearance and 
the first available development system (STK200) had the 10-pin ISP 
connector...
