Because thats what is being worked towards now, and there will be an unknown number of point releases until its reached.
Its also a bit of nostalgia, its what weve always done :)

Hi guys,
I would like to understand whats the rationale behind changing the ReactOS trunk version from 0.4-SVN to 0.5-SVN (see revision 70818) whereas we have just started to release ROS 0.4.0 only?
Thanks in advance for your explanations!
Cheers,
Hermès.
