      Hi,

      When I enter the command os.uname() into the REPL this result comes back:

      (sysname='WiPy', nodename='WiPy', release='1.17.3.b1', version='v1.8.6-849-83e2f7f on 2018-03-19', machine='WiPy with ESP32')

      I'm confused about the release vs version. Can someone explain to me what the difference is?

      Also is my board up-to-date with the latest release?

      Thanks!

        release='1.17.3.b1'

        this is version of Pycom firmware

        version='v1.8.6-849-83e2f7f on 2018-03-19'

        this is version of micropython

        Also is my board up-to-date with the latest release?

        and it looks like recent firmware

        think about people first, then computers
