+  <para>
+    &product-name; version numbers consist of three numbers separated by
+    dots where the first and second number represent the major version
+    and the third number the minor version. Minor version numbers of
+    official releases are always even. An odd minor version number
+    represents an internal development or test build. In addition, each
+    build contains a revision number.
