Because if we're going to change the versioning, we should fix the
spelling at the same time.  So it'd be "Gnome 16" and "Gnome 18".  ;-)

I kind of like the idea of referring to the minor and micro version
number of Gnome as its version number.  The 2 is understood (by the
developers) and people tend to call e.g. "2.14" a major release
anyway, so we might as well call our next version "Gnome 16"
publically.  But, I doubt most would agree...
