Linux kernel to move to version 7.0 after release of 6.19

Linus Torvalds has announced that the kernel will continue as Linux 7.0 after version 6.19. The announcement was made via the Linux Kernel Mailing List. The announcement was shared by The Register. The choice of version 7.0 follows the existing versioning policy, whereby kernel series usually end at subversion 19. Previous series, including 5.x and 6.x, followed the same pattern. According to Torvalds (photo), the transition to a new major number is motivated by clarity in versioning.
