There is no name change. 1511 and 1602 are the versions. The name is Configuration Manager Current Branch.

Is that why the in-place upgrade is now being called out in this release? I'll be honest I followed the thread, but still wasn't sure what the answer was. Can you install SCCM 1602 roles on Windows 2008 R2? With this name change every few months, it’s going to make it a nightmare to find info when searching. I like that I can put in SCCM 2012 and get stuff back from my searches.
