I hope my memory serves me well, but the major reason we did not go the 
predictable
route of 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1 etc was your own push for 2.0 at the 
Berlin
meeting. I can even remember at which corner of the room were you standing when 
voicing the issue :)

I added justification for 2.0 as a celebration of anniversary of the project in 
the
release notes, but that was secondary to that push and would not happen without.
Actually I was not even against that particular bump, but to use it now as an
argument against predictability for yeat another unpredictable jump does not 
look fair :)
