Describe how the Linux version numbering scheme changed with Linux 2.6.x.
What will be an ideal response?
The first two numbers stayed the same, and the third number was incremented with each new release. In this new scheme, a fourth number is sometimes added to indicate patches and bug fixes. On May 29, 2011, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Linux, the version number jumped from 2.6.39 to 3.0. With this latest numbering scheme, the second number will be used for new releases and the third for bug fixes.
