Version numbers should not be only numerology, but 
connected to quality or progress.  Comparing the situation 
of the 1, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6 versions, since starting 2.6 
, the progress of the kernel, and also the situation of 
Linux as a whole and of its use changed very.  Exactly in 
the last subversions with many new hardware 
modules/drivers the quality improved very.  At the same 
time, the subversions becomes too much since the last new 
version.  Thus, it's time for 2.8 or even 3.0 in order to 
mark this very improved quality and use of Linux since the 
start of the 2 and 2.6 versions.    wl
