Not quite :)

The number after the year is the number of releases done in that year...

2011.3 was the third release in 2011. Cactus was a 3 month release cycle...

So, next year, assuming we stay on the same cadence we are currently
on, 2012.1 will be in April and 2012.2 will be in October.

Cheers!
