No way.

I want to know which version of the software someone was using when they report 
a bug. In Drupal 5, it won't be a huge challenge figuring out which version an 
issue is being posted against; and dww was talking about fixing it so that the 
default is the current version (it kind of is now) on the project anyhow, so 
users not paying attention will know.

As it is, it's a total mess. Half the users don't even understand what version 
they're running because we didn't offer version information, but we've just 
changed that. The new system will offer a much more information rich 
environment, and we can utilize that information.
