Re:XFree86 versioning??? Was:4.0 aka release sched

[Intosi]

3.3.x == the stable release branch, and is X11R6.3 based;
3.9.x == the development branch, is X11R6.4 based;
4.0.x (or 4.x) == the forthcoming stable release branch (the first stable version of the 3.9.x branch ;-) ), although I think the first 4.0 will be somewhat unstable (unless they fix a lot of bugs the next few months). 3.3.x and 3.9.x are out now, 4.x will be released somewhere this year.

No way. Real Real Programmers use

'cause you can type faster that way.
