Vijay is correct. We only increment the operating version when we add new features that wouldn't be available in a previous version. Ideally in a Z release (when following a X.Y.Z versioning scheme) we wouldn't be releasing any new features, so the operation version wouldn't change between two Z releases. We had a some cases where a feature from a higher Y release was backported to a Z release (from 3.6 to some 3.5.z IIRC, but I don't remember what feature exactly), which required us to have spaces in the operating-versions for Z releases. Hope this makes sense.

It indeed is 30600 in both 3.6.1 and 3.6.2. Since no new features have been added in the interim, I think this should hold good. operating version needs to be bumped up only if any new functionality/CLI gets added. Adding Kaushal to confirm behavior.

I don't care either way actually, but I just wanted to confirm this
isn't a bug in 3.6.1 so that I can patch puppet-gluster correctly.
Cheers,
James
