3.0 doesn't come necessarily after 2.9

3.0 might be after 2.5 or even after 2.11
They basically locked themself out of 2.1x though.
How the current patch system is based, the first decimal indicates which major patch it is and the second is the minor.
Like we already had 2.15 and if I remember correctly a 2.16
Would be weird for 2.11 to be released months after 2.16.
They've already planned how many major updates 2.x will have and it's highly likely there will be less than 10 :P

My guess is around 2.6 before we get 3.0
