Yes, you did, and it was me.

I'd be fine with the idea of going ahead and making a release that 
only works on a subset of the platforms, as long as eventually all of 
the platforms in use are caught up.  I'm working on Windoze only, so 
I don't need cross-compatibility of mtn versions between different 
OSes.  But other people conceivably might need that.
