Marketing wise, this should be carefully prepared, as otherwise it would
become a real problem for users (and also for journalists). They have
just become accustomed to this release numbering and to the fast pace of
time based releases, and the risk is that they would not understand why
we are changing.
well the main question discussed was whether there were any technical
reasons to avoid changing the versioning, whether it's actually
_desirable_ to do it is purely a marketing decision.
