Linus Torvalds announce Linux 3.0-rc1
There will be no kernel 2.6.40, next version will be numbered instead as 3.0
Linus wrote:I decided to just bite the bullet, and call the next version 3.0.
It will get released close enough to the 20-year mark, which is excuse enough for me, although honestly, the real reason is just that I can no longer comfortably count as high as 40.
