In my mind, yes.

Actually, with one minor version number bump per 12-18 months, we
should have at least 5 years before we're at 2.9.  So I think we can
continue to equate 3.0 and 3000.  It would be nice PR to actually call
it "Python 3000" rather than "Python 3.0" when it comes out -- showing
we can play the marketing game as well as anybody without losing our
sense of humor.
