In the email from omnis it stated:

"We believe the significant development of version 10 marks a new era for
Omnis Software and the renumbering reflects this step change in our
product, marketing and ambition."

If you look at Apple, they are on version 10 since 2001 & they continue to
release product running of 10 (X). Im sure apples marketing dept is
sticking to lucky number 10 for a reason (marketing wise).
