Because 3.1.0 is so close and we'll very soon be telling everyone to
upgrade to 3.1.0. Why make them upgrade to 3.0.4 first?

Right the data collection (running mass-checks) takes longest. But,
the mass-check is specific to the vesion of the code used. So we'd
need to run separate mass-checks for the two versions.

According to Dan, for reasons I'm not yet aware, we only need one
mass-check for 3.1.0 instead of 3 which we needed for the 3.0.x
releases.
