Subject: Document :version for dist.ini
Hello, I noticed today that one may specify a :version key in a configuration section in dist.ini to explicitly specify which version of a plugin is required. This behavior is not documented, and I think it would be nice if it were. I'm willing to write the documentation myself; I would appreciate some suggestions on the most appropriate place for the addition, though! Thanks, Rob

Probably this belongs in the CYOA tutorial at https://github.com/rjbs/dzil.org -- rjbs

Thanks for the suggestion; I took a look at the CYOA sources, but I'm struggling to find which page would be most appropriate for this information. Any suggestions? Thanks, Rob

Yeah, it's not clear. Maybe http://dzil.org/tutorial/prereq.html ? -- rjbs
