What does "Core UI Changes from 1.0.1000 to 26.0.21" mean?  Is this saying that Emby jumped 25 versions in one server update?

There is an embedded UI shared by the web app and many of our other apps. This has it's own version number now so that you can easily track changes for it and so that we can automate our release notes better.

Will there be a blog post explaining the new settings?
