|The numbering does make sense. In answer to your question, 6.1a2 is the
|second alpha release of Finder 6.1. . . .

In particular, MultiFinder 6.1a2 is the preliminary (alpha) version
included with the BETA release of MPW 3.0 in order for SADE (the
debugger) to work.  MultiFinder 6.1b7 was included with the release
version of MPW 3.0.  I presume the final 6.1 will go with the next
minor System release.
