We will be making the current weekly version the new quarterly version on the week of August 18, 2021. The versions will then be:
Weekly: 3.46
Quarterly: 3.45
Frozen: 3.44
3.43 will be retired.
If you don't specify a version (or request a retired version), you will be served a default version, which depending on your key configuration will be either 3.45 or 3.46. But a developer specified version will always be honored and served when requested when it's an existing version.
