What does this mean exactly?

Currently the "official release" is 4.2 and there is an "interim
release" of 4.4.  Will there be a 4.5 (I have heard the current cvs
state referred to as 4.5).  Or will 5.0 be the next "official release"?
Or "interim release"?

I am all for a new release soon, as even the "interim release" does not
compile on Mac OS X. (cvs code does, but many people prefer to work from
releases, not top of tree.)

thanks,
