Should these notes come with version requirements/minimums?

"OS X users should be told to download XCode from the Apple App Store ahead of time." "If new contributors think they may be doing C development, suggest the use of LLVM + clang as this provides better error reporting than gcc." "For Windows users, ask them to download and install Visual Studio Community edition ahead of time."

If you want to submit a PR to say "the latest" that's fine, but I don't know if any of those tools really promote downloading older versions such that one has to worry about it.
