        No, I disagree.  There's too much in 4.0-CURRENT that has changed 
from 3.x-STABLE, and there needs to be a major version bump.  I'd 
prefer to release 4.0-CURRENT sooner, and then perhaps follow-up with 
a 4.1-CURRENT soon thereafter to pick up IPv6 and all the other 
things that we had hoped to put into 4.0-CURRENT, but just couldn't 
make it in time.

        More releases more often are better than indefinitely holding up 
releases waiting for just that one last thing to be finished.

  Unix is like a wigwam -- no Gates, no Windows, and an Apache inside.
   Unix is very user-friendly.  It's just picky who its friends are.
