I am finding that our newest users cannot find Ctrl-SDT and it confuses
them when asked what release they have. Better to improve Help > About
so that it, at the least, shows some more complete version info. 

Better would be to include minor release numbers on the splash screen as
well. 

On more thing I have noticed on this topic. The information in *NIX
bootstraprc is more complete than that included in windows
bootstraprc.ini. Would be nice if these were the same.
