It maintains compatibility with the release and contains no API changes. When missing, it designates the final and complete development drop for a release.

### getDevelopmentVersionNum

  Development Drop Number. Optional identifier designates development drop of a specific release. D01 is the first development drop of a new release. Development drops are works in progress towards a compeleted, final release. A specific development drop may not completely implement all aspects of a new feature, which may take several development drops to complete. At the point of the final drop for the release, the D suffix will be omitted. Each 'D' drops can contain functional enhancements as well as defect fixes. 'D' drops may not be as stable as the final releases.
