Hi, 

Recently a commit in the branch has been made to bump the version from 4 to 5. This is done because the api was extended with two new methods (virtual void readProperties( KConfig *config ) && virtual void saveProperties( KConfig *config )). This bump is initiated by the comment in the source "Increase this version number whenever you make a change in the API.". 

For Mailody I've written a kontact plugin, but now I dont know what to set the X-KDE-KontactPluginVersion to. If I set it to 4 Mailody will show up for kontact up to KDE 3.5.5 and not for > KDE 3.5.5. Setting it to 5 will break everything < KDE 3.5.6.

I am wondering if increasing the version from 4 to 5 was needed for the addition of two methods.

Toma
