It's an important distinction for at least two reasons. A version, such as 2018, is released annually and is intended to be a substantial advance on each previous version. Also, one version counts as one item on your SMA. Each SMA payment covers two years of service and two versions of JAWS.
JM Casey nicely explains why VFO uses the term "build" or "release." I hope it's now clear why this isn't just semantics. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of sandy Sent: Friday, March 16, 2018 3:04 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a possible bug what happened to calling it version? -----Original Message----- From: JM Casey Sent: Friday, March 16, 2018 12:38 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a possible bug The "build" is the latest release of the particular version. So, it's the march build of JAWS 2018. Windows 10 is at build 1803, which is the third month of the year 2018...etc. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of sandy Sent: March 16, 2018 8:27 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a possible bug do you mean version when you say build, and if so, where did build come from? -----Original Message----- From: David Ferrin Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2018 4:58 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a possible bug To add further to this issue. Forced reading commands seem to be fine like say line or top of file for a reason that escapes my understanding. It has been a long time since I said this, but I might have to revert my systems to the previous build until things get straightened out. -----Original Message----- From: David Ferrin Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2018 5:52 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] a possible bug Since todays’ update things are not reading properly for me when I arrow up, down or around for some strange reason. I can’t explain it exactly how this thing is acting. Does anybody have this issue with you’re respective systems. David Ferrin Life is what happens after you have already made other plans.
