I realize that that number means something to *you*, but it's entirely
unhelpful to the people who are trying to beta-test for you. When I
have a couple different beta versions laying about and I can't remember
which one I installed last, I need to be able to tell that from the
about-window. Even more to the point, after 2.3.2 is actually out,
it would be a very good idea if it were obvious to non-expert inspection
whether I have the release version installed or am still on a beta.
So please make the about-window labeling match the downloaded package
name, or at least make it clear how to mentally convert one to the
other.
