Why they don't stop this versioning and make not just one release with the following updates rather that make such a mess when the admins/users have to destroy their previous release and install a new one - as the update option works poorly? The programs grow in their mature and what is the difference between the versions: just its mature, it is the same program, why it can not be just updated for the existing release? Then what is the release versions - just names - in noway related with the programs it includes, growing themselves. Why I do ask such a thing is the problem I have met with the support of my existing release (6). I have even a server set up and tuned up and to change to another release, now 8, it is a hard deal - as a lot of now working stuff should be remade - just to satisfy a new release name! - Seems foolishness to me. Or I miss something?
