I'd guess that the next release of the Enterprise line will probably be a distant cousin of 8.0, but perhaps with the 2.4.20 kernel and/or NPTL. (In particular, although NPTL has caused some compatibility headaches, it looks to be a big win for threaded apps.) Really, though, the "8.0 or 9?" question doesn't matter to me a whole lot. I'm fairly confident most of the things I care about will be in the next Enterprise release, simply because 1) they're not that complicated, and 2) they were already included in 8.0 (if not 7.3).

A masterful "vague but useful" response.
