Assuming 1 year between major releases (7.3.0 -> 7.4.0 = +- 1 year),
then we have 7.5-9.9 = 26 years = up until +- jul 2030. if we skip to
8.0 now, then we have up until 2023.

Hi Dave,

I might be missing the point, but why can't we go to double figures? MS Office has, HP-UX has, OS-X, Norton AV has, Madrake Linux has...

Regards, Dave
