No 2.7 ?No 2.7 ?Posted May 25, 2011 11:01 UTC (Wed) by sorpigal (subscriber, #36106)In reply to: No 2.7 ? by xtifr Parent article: 2.8.0?
For good or ill people have grown accustomed to Linux and its even-is-stable convention. Going to 2.7 would be unnecessarily confusing, bad marketing and probably scary.

Really? It's been 8 years since an odd-is-unstable version! It's not too long now till we reach half the life of the kernel (in years) since there was an odd version...and I'd bet that already more than half the users *and* the developers weren't touching linux before 2.6.0.
