1.1 and 1.2 more than likely refer to releases of AIX for the PS/2.
2.1 refers to a release of AIX for the RT (also 2.2, 2.2.1, others).
3.1 is a common name for AIX Version 3 for Risc System/6000.
9005, 9013, etc.. refer to levels of AIX Version 3, some of which
have been shipped to early support customers.  The 90 is the year,
and the 05, 13, etc indicate the week it was built.
