I completely agree, the question of what we call the next 3 related release?

As much as starting over with M1 would be nice we already have released 
artifacts with M1-M4 and RC1 names. I'd bet that would cause a fair 
amount of confusion. So is starting at M5 and only doing milestone 
releases until we have a real RC the way to go? I'm thinking yes but I'd 
like some confirmation.
