Note: this is *very* different from how Ubuntu (for example) is numbered. Base Ubuntu 'version' numbers are just the year.month of the release: Ubuntu 10.4 is just the base release of April of 2010, it is NOT the 4th point release of the 10th major incarnation of Ubuntu. Don't confuse this 'version numbering' with how CentOS's versions are numbered.
Correction:
Ubuntu LTS versions do have point releases, probably swiped from RHEL/CentoOS.
8.04 was published at the end of April 2008 and has been updated to 8.04.1, 8.04.2, 8.04.3, 8.04.4 every subsequent July and January.
Yes, but the *base version* '8.04' is NOT a point release. I stated "Base Ubuntu 'version' numbers". I know about Ubuntu LTS versions.
