I'm sorry but this is currently the only way to guess the release date. Btw. QLDAPNEWS is always installed make setup check and so is as accurate as any other version string but it is not easy parseable. There is no version added somewhere because I'm lazy. I would forget to increase the version number and that's probably worse. -- :wq Claudio
