From the link here (posted on this list earlier):

"Starting with Red Hat Linux 9 the numbering system for the consumer release will be stated only as an integer. The Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES/WS product line will retain traditional decimal release numbering."

Hm... this will confuse me. I fail to see the reason RH changes the numbering scheme.

Three guesses:

1. Marketing?
2. To get rid of the .0 stigma?
3. To drive people to the Enterprise Linux Product?
