The next Version will be 8.10, guess when it comes out ;-) The Name? i don't know where it comes from, but i think it is definitely needed. You can better relate to something when it's named. Like: ".. i'm still runnning gutsy, not yet upgraded to Hardy". Its better Marketing. I wonder how many people know which version of Windows Vista is. not too many, it is "Vista".
