[ensembl-dev] Surprising CCDS schema versions: mismatches with the version in the database name.

[Jeremy Henty]

I am surprised that several of the CCDS databases have schema versions
that do not match what you would expect from their name.

    ccds_human_71: name version = '71', db version = '70'
    ccds_human_74: name version = '74', db version = '72'
    ccds_mouse_71: name version = '71', db version = '70'
    ccds_mouse_73: name version = '73', db version = '71'
    ccds_mouse_74: name version = '74', db version = '73'

Since the schema version of ccds_human_73 is 73 as you would expect
this means the schema version went *backwards* from ccds_human_73 to
ccds_human_74 !

Is there a reason for this?  It would make scripting easier if we
could reliably infer the schema version from the name.
