I did read "2.3", but when I went to the FTP directory, I used my usual 
method of looking for "win" and "xpi". I have never had to look at the 
version before (because in the past it was always only the current 
version, not current+previous). OK, I modified the comment to now 
reflect there being two versions in the FTP directory.
