The recco's have to do with overall stability etc....  recco'd
releases tend to be bugfix stage releases rather than active
development.  That doesn't meant they get all bugfixes though.  And
they definitely lag behind "point" for even the associated Major.Minor
version, I'm sure by design.  There might be some official policy on
exactly how they advance or select the recco'd release for a given
platform but I'm not aware of it.
