Notes:-
 The release number of a Miranda version is  the  integer  part  of  the
version  number  -  e.g.   version 1.016 is a release one system.  Small
increments  to  the  decimal  part  of  a   version   number   represent
recompilations for different machines, and are of no significance - i.e.
if you have version 2.006 and someone else has version 2.008  this  does
not mean that your version is out of date.
