I really hope there's also a voice that tells you to wait until .42 before cutting 3.0.0! :-)
I think, the best time for this, after reorganize the ARM arch folder / tree.
So I'm toying with 3.0 (and in that case, it really would be "3.0", not "3.0.0" - the stable team would get the third digit rather than the fourth one.
But no, it wouldn't be for 42. Despite THHGTTG, I think "40" is a fairly nice round number.
There's also the timing issue - since we no longer do version numbers based on features, but based on time, just saying "we're about to start the third decade" works as well as any other excuse.
But we'll see.
