Re: MetadataVersion to be shown in the "About" section

 

Okay thanks.

My concern is that this will be a bit confusing to users not using the
meta-data feature, or having no knowledge about this. Also, this is not
strictly meta-data versioning per se - rather a way to download meta-data
packages - there is no guarantee that the entire database will be on a
specific version. Is there any alternative location for this info?
