Take a look at one of the most successful software companies, Microsoft.

Their most successful operating system names were either year-related, 95, 98, and 2000, or had some names, XP and Vista. Their latest Office software were named as Office XP, Office 2003, and Office 2007.  Visual Studio .NET, 2005, and 2008.

Continuing traditional Maple naming scheme, the next version would be Maple 13, with number 13 that many consider being unlucky.

I suggest to apply the successful Microsoft naming strategy instead and name it Maple 2009.

For many customers that would be a much better stimul for upgrading (it worked for Microsoft.)
