Taking above as a joke :-)	

Re.  Nomenclature:
  MickeySoft's "WinDross 95" & "WinDross 98" told year like a wine bottle :-)
  But FreeBSD also has multiple parallel overlapping release streams.
  It is a nuisance remembering FreeBSD is 7, NetBSD 4, SUSE 8, etc.  
  Linux minor release names instead of numbers not intuitive to outsiders.
  src/ports Makefiles etc know about decimal release numbers.
  7.2008-Feb unwieldy compared to 7.0
I guess we'll stay as we are.
