@Andreas Nurbo - So your argument is that 4.0 should be an extra long release cycle because the number has a nice ring to it? I doubt that you've ever worked on a serious software development project if you think it's appropriate for a project (powering ~20% of the web, no less) to suddenly abandon its own philosophy to add "innovative and exciting stuff" to an arbitrarily determined release cycle.

Furthermore, you dismiss the significance of multi-cycle development of core-features-as-plugins; but then believe a single release cycle (4.0) should be extended to the size of several normal release cycles because INNOVATION!

And to think, you had the gall to describe my logic as flawed.
