This fails to answer the question, as you already found out. You need
to say *which* versions contain which updates. I believe a useful
answer will include these facts:
2007 USA changes:
8.0.4 and later, all 8.1.x and up
2007 Canada and Western Australia changes:
8.0.10 and later, 8.1.6 and later, all 8.2.x and up
