Where is 3.0.2.4?

While fulfilling a gateway addition request, a client reported the NTE_BAD_KEYSET crash. After fixing that bug, I updated the version to 3.0.2.4, as I do whenever I fix a bug. Unfortunately, I delayed making a new public release, and had only made releases catered to servers requesting to be added. Whenever I fulfill gateway addition requests, I increment the letter part of the release version. This wasn't a problem until one client pointed out that the game was crashing on join. After fixing that bug, I needed to increment the version yet again, since there were already specialized releases with the version number 3.0.2.4. This is why you see 3.0.2.5 instead of 3.0.2.4.
