Delta Release: A 'Delta' release contains only those component versions created, inactivated or changed since the previous release. The 'Delta' release is much smaller than a 'Full' release and is ideal for updating a 'Full' release of the previous version. Adding a 'Delta' release to the previous version's 'Full' release will update the installation to a 'Full' release of the current Version.

Snapshot Release: A 'Snapshot' release contains the most recent version of every component released up to the time of the snapshot. The version of each component contained in a snapshot is the most recent version of that component at the release time. The 'Snapshot' release is useful for a simple installation but does not provide a history or retrospective view of the terminology.

Extensions should always be available as a full release and other Release Types may also be made available.
