<h2 align="center">Changes since 3.14.8</h2>
<h4>Version Numbering</h4>
<p>This release adds a fourth level of version number, which we haven't used
since R3.13.1.1. The intention is to imply that R3.14.8.1 includes some small
but important changes since R3.14.8 but no signficant new behaviours or API
modifications. This fourth level has required us to modify the version number
system and the macros in the epicsVersion.h file slightly though. We have taken
the opportunity to introduce a new variable <tt>EPICS_SITE_VERSION</tt> to the
file configure/CONFIG_SITE that adds an optional site-specific version number;
sites that were achieving this by editing the configure/CONFIG_BASE_VERSION file
should switch to setting <tt>EPICS_SITE_VERSION</tt> instead.</p>
