+                       <p>All binary packages we were offering contained "vc#" 
(for instance, "vc14") in the filename to designate
+                               the Visual Studio version which has been used 
to build them. This number ("#") has tradionally been
+                               the major number of the respective platform 
toolset. The preview releases of Visual Studio 2017 shipped
+                               with platform toolset 15.00, so we used "vc15" 
to mark the files. The first GA release of Visual Studio
+                               2017, however, shipped with platform toolset 
14.10 (to signal the backward compatibility), but the
+                               internal Visual Studio version number stayed 
15.00. To avoid confusion with already distributed packages,
+                               we stuck with the "vc15" marker. For our Visual 
Studio 2019 builds (PHP 7.4 and master) we finally changed
+                               from "vc#" to "vs#" (note the "s"), where the 
number now designates the major internal Visual Studio
+                               version number. We are planning to stick with 
this new naming scheme for the foreseeable future.
