To answer the question ...

(Corrected thanks to Diaglo)

Original 3 booklets 1st printing: 1st edition
2nd printing: 2nd edition
final printing: 3rd edition
+ Greyhawk: 4td edition
+ Blackmoor: 5td edition
+ Eldritch Wizardry: 6th edition

1st Holmes: 7th edition
2nd Holmes: 8th edition
3rd Holmes: 9th edition
1st Moldovay: 10th edition
2nd Moldovay:11th Edition
Rules Cyclopedia: 12th edition

AD&D 1e: 13th edition
+ Unearthed Arcana: 14th edition

AD&D 2e: 15th edition
+Skills and Powers: 16th edition

D&D 3e: 17th edition
3.5: 18th edition

So by my figurin' the next version will be the 19th edition.

So what do you expect in D&D 19e?

(Amend your responses accordingly.

Um, there already is one.

And there was Spellfire (CCG). When was that? Around 1995 or something?
