Upgrade Content connector

Occasionally, memoQ Content connector receives updates or new versions. Updates are very minor new versions that contain bug fixes only. An update has the exact same major and minor version number, but a higher build number. For example, 2.0.109 is an update to 2.0.108.

Sometimes new versions are also released. These new versions contain new functionality as well as bug fixes. A new version has a different version number - maybe even the major version number is different. For example, 2.1.6 is a new version - an upgrade - to 2.0.108.
