Actually, we've never set a precedent...v6.0 was so named more because
v1.10 just sounded like such a small number compared to the overall age of
the software...

Okay, I can agree with that one :)
Peter brought up a good argument over on his side too...make the Feb1st
one 7, and we'll make the post-WAL stuff 8.0 ...
Just as a note, I'm not 100% certain how this generally works in "real
life", but, in some circumstances, I've seen it happen where the major
gets bumped a significant number of changes have gone into everything
since the last major bump...I think we have achieved that at least one
release back...
