A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
It does me no good at all to tell me that a certain bug was released in "Ladybird" or "Merlin" or "Hopper."
Please adopt one of the following two ideas:
1) Once a new version is released, change the code name (Ladybird, etc.) that appear on your web site to an actual version number.
or
2) Instead of showing just the code name, make the code name a link, which pops up a window telling me the version number.
I'm not using the latest release (there are technical issues involved), so when I look up a bug, I need to know if it has been fixed in my version. Please
don't just say "Ladybird"!
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
A version number in place of, or in addition to, a code name for a release.
ACTUAL -
Ladybird
Hopper
Merlin
Kestrel
etc.
