No change in release times due to the numbering change.

Yes, that would be confusing indeed!  From my original post in this thread:

Beta 3 will be the last milestone release with the 3.1 version number, and
Firefox 3.5b4 will be the following one.  mozilla-central's Minefield
version will be changed to 3.6pre as a placeholder.  For an abundance of
clarity: this does not indicate that the next version will be called
"Firefox 3.6" when it's shipped.

The Firefox after 3.5 might be 3.6 or 4 or Pro Extreme or Mauve, but
it won't be a number that sorts lower than 3.5, I assure you. :)

Mike
