As I know from former times the numbers like 9810 was a serial number of
any build done by Sun/Oracle. so this was unique for a build. There were
two kind of builds ooo-dev and the releasable ooo-builds. The release
candicates werde normal ooo-builds marked eg. as 4.2.0m1 for the first
release candidate of version 4.2.0. So you could see in the build
inforamtion how many release candidates are needed.

Maybe Marcus can add some more informations

Kind regards
