   Hi,
What are upgrade and new versions of project?
A version is a number assigned
to a software package having a particular set of functionalities. The
authors of the software or application keep on removing previous bugs
& adding new features to the applications and the newer application
is marked with a newer number called version. If there is a small
change the version number is increased by a decimal point. If there is
a larger change in the application the version number is incremented by
the whole number. Most of the applications have the feature to check if
the higher version of that application is available on the internet. If
the higher version of application is available on the internet we can
uninstall the lower version & install the higher version of the
application. At times we need not uninstall the lower version of the
application and some patch or driver is available installing which the
application acquires the functionality of higher version & the
application shows the version number of the higher version application.
So a complete version of application is a complete software package
which can be installed independently. An upgrade is not a complete
software package which can work on its own.
