0.2 versions till 8 already? ?

0.92 more like it...

Joking but version numbers can go up to 3 digits per section i.e. #.###.###.### and each section is an individual #, not decimal; so #.10 follows #.9

Major version updates of Kontakt have never followed a version # rollover, NI rolls out a new version based on other criteria.
6.7.1 was last version of the Kontakt 6 series
5.8.1 was last version of the Kontakt 5 series
