We have taken a wrong path by trying to synchronize our releases with
OpenBSD.

This is why you guys are confused now, OpenBSD 5.4 was tagged a while ago
and OpenSMTPD was tagged at the same time and so it ships with a version
that is very close to 5.3.3 but which isn't really 5.3.3 nor what we want
to release for our "next" major.

Long story short:

You should always run our "stable" version which is advertised on our
website since that's always going to be the last stable one.
We have decided to rework how we do our releases so that it removes all the
confusion from the last few months.

Very soon, we will release 5.4.1, which will be our first stable release
for 5.4.
When OpenBSD will tag 5.5, we will not rush to tag OpenSMTPD 5.5 but simply
ship our latest known stable 5.4.x, this way no more bastard versions.
