It is based on Company policy. The first number is a major revision. These typically change when there is a large software functionality change. And the following numbers are minor revisions. It is up to the company how minor revisions are handled. Some Group them all together, and in that case you would only have one minor revision. Some companies break down their minor revisions in the different categories. And that is why you get the multiple decimal points.
