You forgot - the recommendation (Score:2)

A good idea is next to the version number is giving a recommendation on whether a user should update or not. If it is just a maintenance release addressing smoke test failures on "Titanix - the system they say wouldn't go down" - an upgrade might not be required. Other releases might require updates fixing serious bugs etc. See: http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/JONASBN/Business-DK-CPR-0.05/Changes [perl.org] for an example
Good piece btw - take care,
