You can take the first number just as a buffer for the case the second number becomes way too big and becomes impractical to remember it, and you cam make the same trick which kernel devs did when they switch to 3.x series. True, there was no real reason why to jump from 1.6 to 2.0 and not simply continue e.g. to 1.9. If I remember it was actually you who strongly pushed forward for 2.0 for reasons I never really understood; perhaps that marketing thing? :) Not that I see who we are competing with, unlike firefox there's no real competitor unless you count SWP :) In other words, I think our numbering is just fine :) Pavel
