It's the release model we use. If Jeroen decides to change his book, we'll
release it again.

Another program that was doing this is Crafty (judging from the many version
numbers). For commercials, though, it's new, so some people are confused.

We're still trying to come up with a good release tempo. Earlier, it was too
high. Once per three or four weeks for the engine is probably about right.
