Hi Shari,
I am so glad you asked the question.  (because I don't know the
answer either)  I just reported my first bug. I was all confused
with the rev version and just entered 2.8.1.  Did you search bugzilla
to see if a 'version decoder' is already an enhancement request?

LOL! No, I sure didn't :-) But that is a GOOD idea! Eric's explanation of the DP versions helps a little, if I understood correctly that no DP version matches a GM version. But that still doesn't explain how the build numbers fit into all of it, and why GM isn't listed as an option in Bugzilla.

Bugzilla lists vanilla 2.8.1, several DP options, and several RC options. No GM or build number 47x options, which is all I could figure out to pull out of my version.

So in my bug reports, I included the build number so they'd know what version I'm reporting on, presuming they themselves have a nifty decoder :-)

I will input this as a feature request. I do think this is important, as it is very confusing when reporting a bug. I just assumed everybody else here magically *knew* the decoding secrets ;-)

She has bug number 5175.
