StanleyJohn,

A little additional information on that:

OpenSat presents "daily firmware releases" and "official firmware releases".

The daily releases, which aren't really daily, they are not even weekly, and sometimes it might be a month or more in between the releases. These releases are their programmers latest revision and they haven't fully been tested or approved. They are more than just a beta test version, but not totally approved by OpenSat. They are released to the public as a courtesy to those individuals who would like to experiment with the latest changes being attempted.

The official releases are the firmwares that Opensat has totally and officially approved. Version 0.9.3686 is the most recent official release. To my current knowledge.

All versions beyond this are deemed the daily revisions. So that includes 0.9.5020.

I guess when they have proven that a particular revision is stable in their eyes, then they deem it OFFICIAL.
