I'm sure it does. I think the ant script that builds the JOSM modules fetches the appropriate version number from SVN. By the way, the plugin auto-updae feature in JOSM is really error- prone. I don't know how many people actually work with it but what it does is: It reads the plugins Wiki page from josm.openstreetmap.de and compares the version numbers mentioned there to those of the plugins acutally loaded. If the loaded version is less than advertised on the Wiki page, it will offer to "update" the plugin. However if someone was a bit sloppy and the version numbers don't match, then JOSM will perpetually offer to "update" the plugin and only get an "older" version downloaded, driving the user nuts. Also, the Wiki page is becoming increasingly hard to maintain. Since we have an unified ant build script to build the plugins, maybe we should just record all version numbers as we go along, and have an auto-generated page either in the JOSM wiki or in SVN that JOSM can use to determine current version numbers.
