That conclusion is invalid. 2.6, 2.7, ... are not made to gradually move towards 3.0, but because it is anticipated that 3.0 will not be adopted immediately, but, say, 3.2 might be. To provide new features for 2.x users, new 2.x releases need to be made (of course, the features added to, say, 2.7 will likely also be added to, say, 3.3).
