I probably didn't use the right terminology. The version of Stretch that
I have currently installed is from a download dated 2018-06-27. A newer
version, dated 2018-10-09, is now available. Not knowing what these
different downloads are called officially, I just used "iteration."
Maybe these are considered "point" releases (like in Mint 18.2, 18.3,
for example)?
