AFAIK, this is how SF advertises the latest package published by the 
project. If we'd release e.g. FB 2.5.2 right now, the banner would 
change and refer to v2.5.2. After some other release (e.g. ODBC driver) 
the banner would change again.

We have multiple sub-projects hosted in different trees of the 
repository, so they're all considered being parts of the Firebird 
database, hence the confusion you mention.
