There are a slew of versions and what's available depends upon where you look.  Nothing to indicate a reason for choosing a particular version. I was not able to find anything on the OI wiki other than a broken link in the oi151a release notes pointing to:

I've been down this rabbit hole before and wound up giving up in hopes that things might become clearer if I waited a while.  So far as I can tell all that's changed is version numbers. My primary requirement is something that works reliably.
