Ummmmm, pardon my ignorance, but why?  Are you saying 2.1, 2.3, 2.5,
etc are not going to be used *at all*?

In Linux, Gtk+ and other projects that currently use the x.[02468].z vs
x.[13579].z distinction, they actually release development versions
periodically.  In the Samba world, by contrast, all we have is stable
releases and anonymous CVS.  Is this going to change as well?  Will you
be releasing regular x.[13579].z alpha versions now?

Because if not, then skipping 2.1 and going straight to 2.2 doesn't
seem to serve any purpose.
