RELEASE-NUMBERS

If the <major> part changes, major design changes were applied, therefore you have to upgrade your installation.

If the <update> part changes, important bugfixes were applied, the config file might have changed, therefore you should upgrade your WA2L/edrc installation to the current version.

If the <patch_level> part changes, minor changes or bugfixes were applied, the configuration file format did not change, therefore it is not urgent to upgrade your installation, but recommended.
