Or you're downloading it for the first time off a mirror site
and aren't really sure which is the latest version. At 0.5kbit/s you
wait for it to come down. Subscribe to TBUDL, only to realise that you
downloaded an earlier release. Drats. You wouldn't have known either.
No version number attached.

What tipped me to the final release is that I went to look at
ftp.ritlabs.com to see what this thing about the download being 3MB
was about. I noted that the full install download was a file dated the
10th of March. Very recent. Most likely an unannounced update (I mean
unannounced on list). So I downloaded it and I was right. Earlier, I
had downloaded another copy of version 1.39 following the same
reasoning. I guess they were refreshing the folder or something,
<shrug> but the same version had two different dates.
