Description Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2010-03-09 18:16:51 EST
I believe it just wastes space. To be consistent we should look at just have the version next to the id, similar to other things in PDE.

Any reason we have a version column?
Comment 1 Darin Wright CLA 2010-03-10 09:40:19 EST
I agree with this. Looking at the API/implementation, I don't see that the versions are actually persisted/used in anyway - they are just extra information. We should render as decorations.

Patch

Removed the version column and suffixed it (version) to feature name with decoraiton

Great work Ankur, +1

We should probably make a similar change to our bundle block for version number highlighting.
