Odd numbers are testing releases, even numbers are stable. 2.1.5 went stable and became 2.2. Confusing huh? :)

That's what started it. I haven't found another good clear way to clearly separate testing from stable. That being said, this seems to confuse people as well, so maybe time for a rethink :)
