My personal preference, for whatever it's worth, would be to call it 12.1.
The 12.0 release was the biggest release we've had in a long time and it
seems odd to me to jump to 13.0 right away when we really haven't done much
at all in terms of new features. (I think it's only 2 or 3 desktop features
in the case of Intel.  A bit more on the ES side I guess).
