Not really, the release version is 1.9.0 ... all the previous versions were release candidates, nothing more.

Hi Bill,

The release note needs a minor fix:

           Release: WSJT-X Version 1.9.0
                   June 1, 2018

Should be Version 1.9.1

— John G4KLA

John's comment is correct. The SVN commit in question, r8735, refers to what will soon be released as WSJT-X version 1.9.1.

Why should there be another release, almost immediately on the heels of v1.9.0 ???

Because we had intended to remove a programmed restriction that prevented transmission of more than one signal by "Fox" stations using FT8 DXpedition Mode. However, alas, we inadvertently neglected to remove this restriction.

WSJT-X Version 1.9.1 will be released as soon as we can create and post the installation packages. It will be identical to Version 1.9.0 except that the restriction on use of more than one "slot" will be removed.

Legitimate DXpeditions intending to use FT8 DXpedition Mode should definitely upgrade to v1.9.1 when it's available. Most other users need not do so: for normal or "Hound" operation there is no difference.
