==Flavour, Release, Version, and Build== | |||
'''Flavour''' is used to represent the original Cumulus, Cumulus 2, and Cumulus MX, collectively. Where the text says applicability is dependant on flavour, it means that the action you do depends on whether you are installing/running Cumulus MX or the original Cumulus software. | |||
'''Release''' is used to signify what the Cumulus developer makes available for download after there has been a modification to the software. For most Cumulus 1 builds, the release consisted of a executable that would create all the folders and files needed to run that software. For Cumulus 2, releases were a zip file and were numbered using a identifier with many digits. MX releases. MX releases are as a zip file that is labelled with the build number. | |||
'''Version''' here is a precise term, it identifies collectively all builds that are given a particular version number, that can include alpha and beta releases. For Cumulus 2, the log string of digits that identifies each release was sometimes called the version number. For the original Cumulus, and some MX releases, the version number only changes when new features are included in the release. Major functionally changes affect digit after the first decimal point (digit before decimal point identifies the flavour), while for minor functionally changes, a third part is added to the version number. | |||
'''Build''' number in Cumulus 1 and 3 (MX), was used to identify each release, and historically alpha, beta, and bug fixing, releases could all share the same version number. For recent MX releases, the developer has changed version number every time there is a new build released. | |||
