Scott,

AFAIK, you cannot determine the release state based on the version 
number. I'll yield to any of the developers, but I believe the latest 
release at SourceForge is the latest stable release regardless of 
version number. In this case, 1.7.1.1 is the latest stable release.

For the latest development release, I have a shortcut saved to 
http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/assp/viewforum.php?f=17 that hasn't 
failed me yet (currently it lists 1.7.1.2 in the title and a variant of 
1.7.1.1 on the page, but I've done enough development to not really 
worry too much on release version listing until it's installed and I 
have to report bugs)

As for the version number you refer to 1.7.1.1 (1.0.00)

The first is the ASSP release 1.7.1.1
I believe the second (in parenthesis 1.0.00) is the version of the 
rebuildspamdb.pl script. Again, I'll yield to the developers on that.

The version listed on the main homepage seems to be forever behind.
Also, in the 1.7 releases there is an option (AutoUpdateASSP) to 
automatically download (and/or install) any new releases of the assp.pl 
script and automatically restart (AutoRestartAfterCodeChange) with the 
new script.
There's also an option to do the same with the latest development 
version (AutoUpdateASSPDev) if you're keen on that. I'm not.

Hope that helps

Later
