I don't think we have any reason to hold up renaming the version.  We can have a separate discussion about what upgrade paths are supported, but let's at least address this one issue of version number so we can have consistent messaging.  When i talk to people about the next release, I'd like to be consistent with what I call it, and have a unified voice as a project.

I think that's better actually, yeah. I was originally thinking T-2 from the "what calendar time frame is reasonable" perspective, but saying "if you're on a currently supported branch you can upgrade to a release that comes out" makes clean intuitive sense. That'd mean: 6.0: 5.0, 4.1, 4.0 online upgrades supported. Drop support for 4.0. API compatible guaranteed w/5.0. 7.0: 6.0, 5.0, 4.1 online upgrades supported. Drop support for 4.1. API compatible guaranteed w/6.0. 8.0: 7.0, 6.0, 5.0 online upgrades supported. Drop support for 5.0. API compatible guaranteed w/7.0. I like this.
