Oracle Version numbers

How do Oracle version numbers work. The article suggests the previous version was 10g, the new one is 11g, so where does the g come from? Is it like the equivalent of a minor version number?

In which case surely the new one should be 11a?

Im confused? Please explain because Im sure I'm not the only one.

Thanks

How can it be true that doing the work of gathering and concentrating information about a person and placing it in a single database with multiple access routes; makes that information more secure?! I would suggest that most people would make the implicit assumption that that would make it *less* secure.
