Any plans to update simp-core to reflect the new versions of SIMP? Currently it appears that all updates are under the old version #'s (5.1.x and 4.2x) per these docs:

Forgot to include:

The prerequisites on the page are incorrect for the version of CentOS needed for 4.3.X. Your other documentation states use CentOS 6.8 Disk 1 and 2.

Hi Mark,

At this time, we're going to keep the 5.1.X and 4.2.X moniker.

I know that it's a bit confusing, but w're currently in the process of rebuilding the entire build system, so it's not going to matter very much in the not too distant future anyway.

Thanks,

Trevor

I'm not quite following. What part of the prereqs section is incorrect?

Ah, yeah, we'll bump that.

We're going to start porting all of that into the official Read the Docs documentation.

Another quick question: Should I use 4.2.X or 4.3.0-0 for the Auto Build? I noticed both are valid options.

Honestly, either should work, but I would stick with 4.3.0-0 for the most repeatable results.
