Hello Corey,

The "v3" I sent basically adds both client & server version numbers in
client-side variables, basically same code as suggested by Pavel for the
server version, and some documentation.
The questions are:
- which version should be provided (10.0 100000 ...)
- how should they be named?
In v3 there is VERSION{,_NAME,_NUM} for client and
SERVER_VERSION_{NUM,NAME} or SVERSION_NUM suggested
by Pavel for server.
- how desirable/useful is it to have this in 10?
Despite that this was not submitted in the relevant CF...
I created an entry in the July one, but this is for 11.
