Hi All

First of all thank you for the feedback TJ.  I have updated variable to type.

With regard to the references to SDK versions, to save having to
update the documentation every time the development kit is updated,
would it not be better to have the reference as just "SDK", or are
different versions of  SDK running simultaneously?

Just thinking it might be a good idea because I once worked for a
telecoms software house that developed a development kit to go with
their software and they decided on a general reference to it to cut
down on the minor updates to the documentation.
