All I see here is the CHANGELOG.md and not the actual version bump

When the container is updated it will pull the version during the build.

We should think about pinning versions so it doesn't get incidentally updated again later. I've run into nasty bugs with surprise Docker version updates by depending on the latest tag.

We do pin to 'stable' but that does not require us to set the number. I like the convenience of not having to change version numbers and simply rebuild the container. I understand what you mean about potential versioning problems. If we are not comfortable with 'latest' I have also tagged the release versions. You can explore that here:

As this is a dev container I recommend using the latest version. Everything is pinned to stable so this should give us the stable code with the latest security fixes.

For documentation purposes, the only way to trigger the build is to push a tag on this repo. That should be a deliberate act and not something that would result in surprises. That in particular is one of the reasons I've shared a pull request to update the version. Everyone has a chance to build on latest, test and comment before we release.
