10.x is the output that some people desire. A significant number of people, including me, would prefer to stick with the current three-part versioning scheme, possibly with some change to the algorithm for bumping the first digit (e.g. every 5 years like clockwork).
I was speaking for the project/community as a distinct entity and not about any individual contributor. I'm acting as if we're past the point of individual opinions and votes on the decision to go to a two-part versioning scheme.
We will still welcome any major revelations that may have gone unconsidered during the decision making but I find that to be unlikely.
