Hmmm... on the thread titled "dita docs vrmlist (version 10 and 10.2)" I
just wrote:

If we keep version variables specific to a book (instead of defining
them at a higher level), then if a given translation in the trunk hasn't
been updated to incorporate information in the newest release, people
would know. Taking Getting Started as an example, the version for that
translated book could be left at 10.1 to clearly indicate that it has
not incorporated 10.2 features yet.

Maybe a default value, that can be overwritten by each document if
applicable? Not sure if that is possible/feasible.
Also, maybe we could/should exclude those not-completely current books
from a new release branch? So they don't end up in any releases?
