Marcy said we've all been known to skip one in the middle now and then.  I took 
well-deserved heat for skipping a few more than one... going from VM/ESA 2.4.0 
directly to z/VM 5.1.0.

.Off the top of my head, perhaps forgetting some releases, we skipped z/VM 3.1, 
4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4.  Indeed, VM is really nice to you in that way!

Can you go from 5.2 to 5.4 when it does come out?

Thanks,

of z/VM yet to be announced.  What, when, and if's will be made
available when the time is right, which isn't now.
