Lack of correlation between installed version and downloadable versions

Typically, in an "about" dialog, I expect to see the exact version number that is installed.  Today, I looked at the "about" dialog for my SoapUI installation, and it said:

soapUI 3.5, copyright (C) 2004-2009 eviware.com http://www.soapui.org | http://www.eviware.com Build dist-87-2010-03-01, Build Date 2010/03/01 17:27

So, I see on the web site that version 3.5.1 is available.  I see no information on the web site about the "build number" or "build date" of the release.  With no other information, I'd have to conclude that the available release is newer than what I have installed.  So, I installed it.  When I viewed the "about" dialog again, I saw exactly what I saw before.

It seems that the version number in the "about" dialog is incorrect. It should be "3.5.1", not "3.5". It might also be useful if I could see a build number and build date for the available release before downloading it.
