Launchpad version numbers - are they useful?

[Stephan Hermann]

Hi,

regarding Launchpad as Webapplication, I don't think it matters to
mention the version number.

Regarding launchpad as api, it matters somehow...but it would be good to
have the version number somehow in an api (json) call exposed.

Regards,
