Because with the usual numbering the next normal feature release would have been called 1.4.5, we said we would bump to 1.5 some time ago. There is no fundamental change between 1.4.4 series and the upcoming 1.5.0 -- only superficial ones. I do not think it deserves a bump in the major version; well, at least I did not think it would, when we first started talking about "the new release whose main theme was usability enhancements". - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
