Only 3.7.0 was ever released, it introduced a lot of changes, so that is why staged upgrades recommend that this version is implemented and run fro a while before continuing to upgrade.
If you are using 3.7.0 (there were no other builds in 3.7.y series), then you should upgrade directly to version 3.9.6 - build 3101.


Version 3.8.0 was a major release, as it introduced the ability to run Cumulus MX as a service. However, there were bugs in the builds in all 3.8.z versions, and in some 3.9.x versions, so it is recommended that anyone using 3.7.0 upgrades directly to version 3.9.6 - build 3101. However there is a one-off change described in [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=146957#p146957  v3.9.0 - b3095 release announcement] for those using RG-11 rain sensor. There is a further on-off change described in [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=147329#p147329 release announcement for Patch release 3.9.1 - b3096] for those who use '''Mono''' to enable the executables to run.

Version 3.8.0 was a major release, as it introduced the ability to run Cumulus MX as a service. However, there were bugs in the builds in all 3.8.z versions, and in some 3.9.x versions, so that is why you need to skip through intermediate builds below 3101.
 
'''IMPORTANT''' one-off actions needed:
* There is a one-off change described in [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=146957#p146957  v3.9.0 - b3095 release announcement] for those using RG-11 rain sensor.

When you are happy with running version 3.9.6 build 3101, you can continue to upgrade, and that will be covered in subsequent sub-sections (assuming someone is bothered to keep this article up to date).
