175 were beta version. But since version 2.3.0, the second (minor) version
176 number implies the stability of the Wanderlust. Even minor number
177 corresponds to a stable version, and an odd minor number corresponds
178 to a development version. This version numbering is based on the
179 widespread convention of open source development.
