Hi,

Phoenix will get a new name and is already not know anymore as "v5", at
least "internally" until Friday.

It won't happen, see next:

TYPO3    Phoenix
 :
3.8
 |
4.0
 |
4.1
 |        (5.0)
4.2         |
 |          |
4.3         |
 |          |
4.4         |
 |          |
4.5         |
 |          |
4.6         |
 :
           (X) forget about 5.0!

 :
6.0         |
 |          |
6.1         |
 |         1.0 (release of "TYPO3 [some-new-name]"!)
6.2         |
 |         1.1
6.3         |
 :

 :
7.0         |
 |         1.8
7.1         |
 |         2.0
7.2         |
 :

Remark: the two graph will of course not be synchronized like that
starting from what we see as 6.0 here. I just slightly changed Bernd's
graph. Hopefully "1.0" will be out soon.

> what we need are different names to these different things.

This will happen soon => rename of "Phoenix" to "TYPO3 [some-new-name]",
that is the (current) idea.

> as we all are proud on the name TYPO3 we have to distinguish the two
> versions like different products from the same manufacturer

Concept of "TYPO3 brand umbrella", to be refined and discussed.

Kind regards
