Frank: And to muddy the waters (add confusion to this). there are Release Candidates for each micro release. Thus OOD680_rc1 will be the first release candidate for the 2.0.4 version. This may or may not correspond to any version of the OOD680 milestone (m) releases.
Thus you have: 680_mxxx (milestone builds commonly referred to as developer builds not be used in a production environment and for testing only) OOD680_mx (milestone builds for the 2.0.4 release. Again these are developer builds for testing/evaluation). OOD680_rcx (hopefully just one, release candidates. These are equivelent to beta builds. More extensive testing to find problems/issues that the development team did not find or for special configurations. May be used in a limited production environment.) 2.0.4 Final This is the final build and was fully QA'd. All issues are known and this is best release given the time frame for the release. Some problems may still exist, but this release will not cause major problems.
