Re: From 2.4 to 2.6 to 2.7?

So if the version were to be date-based, instead of releasing 2.6.26,
maybe we could have 2008.7 instead. Or just increment the major version
every decade, the middle version every year, and the minor version every
time we make a release. Whatever.

Or you could just do it like emacs or Solaris and simply use a single number.
