No 8.0.3?

I was told that 8.0.3 was going to be released to help correct some of the major flaws (especially in the standard client). I recently found a document that indicted 8.0.3 will not be released. Was I the only one that was told that 8.0.3 was going to be released???

Subject: Upgrade to 8.5 / 8.5.1 or apply fix packs

Notes 8.5 is your upgrade path from 8.0.2 (or 8.5.1 if you want to wait a few months). If you just need to fix bugs in 8.0.2 then IBM will continue to supply fix packs.

Ed Brill explains the logic behind this here:
