Version Number of Upcoming Release

[Milot Shala]

+1 from me on 2.3 as long as it has some major improvements/changes
especially the toolbar.

But I will propose to change the splash screen as well and make a 2.3 splash
screen if resources are available for doing so in order users can see right
from the start that the Amarok has been improved, what do you think?
