They are NOT upgrades. They are updates. The latest (2.0.8) was to fix a new problem that was accidentally introduced in 2.0.7. In general, updates with only the last (third) digit in the version number represent fixes for either security vulnerabilities or critical problems. New capabilities are generally not introduced with these updates. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
