This is from recent kerbel mailing list post. A voice inside Torvals head is telling hin that it would be time to go for 3.0 versioning
Everyone, don't get too excited. The reasons for "Linux 3.0" are - "the numbers are getting too big" (2.6.40) - the 2.6 prefix has no meaning, and 3.0 for a release and 3.0.1 for a bugfix release is shorter than 2.6.40 anf 2.6.40.1
Of course, the 3. would still have no meaning.... :P

I heard from several reliable sources it'll be 2.8, not 3.0. Why not just call the package "kernel?"
