ok i am a little confused - why are there the 3.10 version then there is a 3.8 version? i will admit that I don't normally follow this, but it does seem confusing

You are taking 3.8>3.10 which is true in maths, but in the weird and wonderful world of program numbering this should be interpreted as version 3 release 8 < version 3 release 10
For this reason I tend to number program versions with leading zeroes so if it was mine they would be 3.08 and 3.10. If it got to 3.99 the next version would be 4.00.
