Well that's a start I guess. :) But is there a minimum actually *required* version? Third-party users without dedicated ops departments will be more likely to want to install and forget, and knowing what should actually work versus what won't work at all will be helpful.

Are there particular features that were introduced in particular versions? Are things required that are not yet in a release version, so you have to use a development version of at least X, or the future stable version Y or later?
