the way they talk about how Blue will improve this and that over W8, and is available to existing W8 customers by end of summer makes it sound like it's the successor to me. Maybe they'll still do numbers in future releases because that's easier than thinking of a catchy nickname each time (or maybe they'll do an alphabetical thing like Android and the next release after will be named Windows Cobalt).
either way, it sounds like Windows going forward is one giant blob for all, with the exception of course being RT, and I don't know if they really know what they wanna do there.
