Before branching AS5 (Branch_5_0) I was wondering what would most people would prefer/think 
about the next minor JBossAS release.

- Continue with the even release number legacy, i.e. 5.2.0

- Scrap the legacy numbering, i.e. go for 5.1.0

Cheers

PS
AFAIR, the original idea was that odd minor numbers (e.g. 5.1) would indicate development 
releases, while even numbers (5.2) stable production releases. This didn't worked out quite 
well and the code always targeted the next production release with Betas/RCs used for 
pre-production releases. Who would want to test drive a purely development release, anyway?
