[Mono-dev] What mono branch/tag to use from svn

Hi,

One more question. The binary builds that are up here:
http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html

Do these downloads exactly match the tagged mono 2.4 folder in svn?  
Or were they build from the mono 2.4 branch?

The reason why I am slightly confused here is because on the Mac OS X  
download page it says:
Mono 2.4_7. Does this mean there have been 7 updates to the Mac OS X  
dmg installer after 2.4 was shipped? Or why is a "_7" appended to the  
release name?
