Nope, that was not decided yet.

But I added 3.0.6 as the current development version two days ago, as people 
reading kde-cvs should surely remember. I wonder why that didn't work. I'll 
try to reproduce and fix during lunch, maybe the regexp is broken. I didn't 
test because I'm not running HEAD, but I think I know a way to cheat now.

Hmm, that would make sense, although the true fix would be to avoid redundant 
info of course. Is there a file in CVS that the wizard can open to read the 
version number of the current CVS HEAD ? Like the KDE_VERSION define that 
does exactly what I need.
