			This article lists in concise tabular format all MX releases starting at build 3045, the first with significant updates.
⚫	This article lists in concise tabular format all MX releases starting at build 3047. Mark Crossley brought MX out of the beta development with build 3050, but the preceding few builds contained important changes they are worth including here. The very first version 3.0.0 build by Mark was 3044 which included some elements that were in Steve Loft's source (left to the Community when as part of his retirement he gave up involvement in Cumulus) but had not been previously released. However, 3044, 3045, 3046 were all experimental in that they tried to fix certain bugs and prepare a basis from which later builds could start really introducing new functionality, you can look them up at [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=17887 MX Current (releases since b3043)] in support forum.
