Really I suspect the VM version numbers should fully decouple from the image version numbers, really nothing requires one to use a 3.10 image to build a VM that will work with a 3.10, I'm quite happy to continue working with my 3.8 VMMaker image...
And of course the story comes full circle once people realize that the reason for naming the VMs according to image versions was precisely in response to complaints about how confusing it is that the versions differ ;-)

At the moment I'm fully occupied with a VM rewrite, post Sophie era, so I'll take hints on what the new macintosh version should be called...

At the moment, the current version of the Windows vm is 3.10.6 . If I where a newbie, I would expect to have a 3.10.6 image too, to use with that vm.
I see. It seems difficult to change that though, because the VMs do evolve differently. Any ideas how to improve the situation?
