I would strongly suggest not to make such a version jump: 1. It is bad for marketing 3. It is awkward
Why? What is the reasoning behind those statements? I actually see any confusion caused by the big change in version numbering as an opportunity, not a problem.
Microsoft too once thought bumping version numbers bigtime is a good idea. By now, they ended up with (1, 2, 3, 95, 98, 2000, XP, Vista, 7), which messes with trivial sorting in all respectable ways, thanks to the switch from digits to letters and back again, and the breaking of strict ordering (7 > 2000?!). Please, let's learn something of that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
