was it 3.0 or 4.0... i dont remember they had a whacked version jump to 7.0 in there somewhere to keep up with redhat's release numbers... blah whatever.

i read the explanation for that on the slack site.

basically, it was because users were feeling inferior and complaining that the ver numbers were so low, particularly in comparison to asshat.

so, they made a jump to make slack sound "current" with the rest of the commercialized linux world.
