I'm new to Selenium and I'm a bit confused about the version numbers. Selenium 2.0 was released in 2011. I just downloaded the Selenium IDE Firefox extension and it is version 1.7.2. Is there also a 2.0 release of the IDE, or does the 1. x series confusingly contain the 2.0 code?
I checked Selenium HQ, which states that 1.7.2 is currently the latest release of the Selenium IDE.

Selenium IDE is an accessory to your testing environment, acting as an extra set of tools for certain testing functions such as log ins, user interface buttons, and search queries. Selenium WebDriver, on the other hand, is a complete system you can use to build your application test requirements.
Versioning of Selenium releases has always been kind of confusing. The essential difference between Selenium 1 and 2 is that Selenium 1 used the Selenium Remote Control interface, while Selenium 2 is based on WebDriver. That means: Selenium 2 tests are such ones that you write in code, e.g. in Java, in an object-oriented manner. Everything you record or script using the Selenium IDE uses the Selenium RC interface, which still works with Selenium 2 for backwards compatibility. So there is no Selenium IDE 2.

As it happens, I'm actually working on an alternative to Selenium IDE called Se Builder that does support Selenium 2. It's still under development, but the first beta version is due to be released in the next few days.

There is no Selenium IDE 2.0. You can use Selenium IDE with Selenium 1.0 as well as selenium 2.0
