You got it.  Developers of various different libraries toolkits and apps are 
each free to update to newer versions of SQLite whenever they want, or to skip 
versions, or not to update at all.  If you want to find out who is working on a 
.NET provider (and I'll bet there's more than one) then look up the name of 
that provider, not SQLite.  Googling on

sqlite .net provider

found me some useful-looking sites, it looks like at least two different 
projects.  So the answer to your original question is "There are at least two 
of them.".  But I know nothing about .NET so I don't know how to take it 
further.

Simon.
