/* ---------- "Boomerang questions" ---------- */
I'm looking for some information about a cdev called boomerang. I have found version 2.0 of it in the sumex archive, but also found 2.0b9 in some ftp archive elsewhere. I'm wondering if the 2.0b9 version is a later version than 2.0 or if its the other way around. If anybody could shed some light on this I would really appreciate it.



2.0 is the latest. In the mac world, you start with the version number you want
(like 2.0) and add beta codes as you develop it (2.0b1 .. 2.0b3, etc). The
final version just drops the beta codes and uses the number.
