[Arthur Ryman <ryman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Sounds like something we should be doing.
I can have Jeffrey handle this unless someone else wants to.

It is also not just an update site issue, it is also a major
pain to identify library conflicts if users upgrade/install
via a normal download.

And its also a major issue to sync up projects that uses WTP plugins -
no way to see what version they are using by manual inspection, trial and
 
error...

If the minor version number were incremented (which in my view make sense
since something really has changed and been released) then these  
integration
issues will be alot less painfull - and WTP would get adapted quicker.
