Description

Some release notes for .NET runtimes use a phrasing that implies that the runtime includes a SDK:

$MAJOR.$MINOR SDKs that are included in $MAJOR.$MINOR.$PATCH runtimes

Phrasing used by:

• 9.0.2
• 9.0.3
• 9.0.4
• 8.0.12
• 8.0.13
• 8.0.14
• 8.0.15

9.0.0 and 9.0.1 use a different phrasing that is in my opinion better:

$MAJOR.$MINOR SDKs that include $MAJOR.$MINOR.$PATCH runtimes

A user asked my why Ubuntu's .NET 9 runtime package did not include the 9.0.203 SDK as mentioned in the release notes.

@victorisr - please update for future releases. I think the bit Dominik is referring to is at the top of the file:

Example that we want: ("SDKs that include ...")

9.0 SDKs that include 9.0.1 runtimes:
[9.0.102](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/9.0/9.0.1/9.0.1.md)

Example we don't want: ("SDKs that are included in...")

The .NET 9.0.4 and .NET SDK 9.0.203 releases are available for download. The latest 9.0 release is always listed at [.NET 9.0 Releases](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/9.0/README.md).
9.0 SDKs that are included in 9.0.4 runtimes:
[9.0.203](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/9.0/9.0.4/9.0.4.md)
