Hi, Florian.

Wouldn't you want/need to change the version string (including the version number) for every release so that it can be identified?  It's possible that a Project Lead may wish to coordinate version numbers, but I don't see why it couldn't be changed.

Perhaps I've misunderstood the question?

Thanks,
