It introduces a problem with the odd minor number semantics, but that might be solvable [1]. It also begs the question... "What happens when we do bump the major number?" Start the next series at 3.20? That's not totally crazy. Though I made a joke about it in 2004, I don't think it's a terrible idea. But it should be well thought out before we do it. - Jeff [1] <danw> we're clever. we'd think of something. -- GUADEC 2006: Vilanova i la GeltrĂș, Spain http://2006.guadec.org/ Jeff: Whatchootalkin'boutwillis?
