Whats in a number... a release by any other verson smells just the same
So Torvalds set up a survey where the choices were: "I like big versions and I cannot lie." and "v.4.0, 'cause I get confused easily." This "scientific" survey showed 56 percent of the respondents wanted version, so Torvalds decided to give it to them.
So the man himself thinks playing the numbers game is silly and meaningless... which means this is just a continuation of the current kernels rather than a magic new release that is going to save the rainforest and make geeks fertile.

Well if it lights yer candle...remotely via satellite perhaps. :D
