Should have mentioned that that doesn't make "Windows 7" Windows 7.0. Anyone who tries the beta will notice the code is versioned as 6.1 which only adds to the confusion. I assume it's done to imply a major change in the minds of consumers, but keep the 6.x codebase to help developers with version checking for API compatibility.
