Actually, 4.61 is either the exception which proves that rule, or the start
of a new policy. (I'm not sure whether Philip has decided which. This set
of new docs resulted from problems with the 4.60 docs.)

From the top of the 4.61 spec.txt:

|Revision 4.61                      |22 March 2006                      |PH
|


The other revised docs are on the FTP site, including the HTML.

There is still language on the Web site about 4.60 being the current
version. I suspect that when Nigel has time to adjust that, the rest will
fall into place.
