Absolutely. Sean and I have already
discussed this and will look at ways to get the version number in to these
files.

Subject	[cdt-dev] CDT project files and version numbers

CDT project files (.cdtbuild & .cdtproject) don't
appear to contain the CDT version number that was used to create them.
 A version number is very useful in at least a couple of scenarios:

*                
You need to make an incompatible change in the file format.  CDT would
be able to detect and convert old project files.
*                
The user attempts to load a newer project file into an older version of
CDT.  CDT can detect this and issue a warning or error.

Comments?
