We had the transition to Unicode but missed it (version number wise).

In my view, it does not make sense to "jump" from 1.6 to 2.0. Even if
there are new features, there is also continuity in the base code.

I'd wait with 2.0 for the XML file format, as even if not seen by the
average user, this is a change at the very base and the numbe scheme
can serve to highlight this "hidden" revolution.
