Oracle Linux versioning

Hi Avi, i'm quiet confuse if the release and distributions:
uname -a on my server show me 2.6.32-200.13.1.el5uek, that mean that it's a Entreprise Linux 5 ?
what the diff betwenn OEL5, OEL6 EL5UEK, EL6UEK, i'm lost.
Oracle Linux kernel appear as UEK ?
I just go to edelivery and found theses download :
1) Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 4 for x86_64 (64 Bit) V37084-01 3.5G
2) Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 4 Boot iso image for x86_64 (64 bit) V37088-01 197M
3) Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 4 UEK Boot ISO image for x86_64 (64 bit) V37090-01 196M
4) Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 4 source DVD 1 V37086-01 3.1G
5) Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 4 source DVD 2 V37087-01 1.9G

If I build a server with the 1) what will be the result of a uname -a ?
What the purpose of the number 2 and 3 ?

So many questions ....
