i notices that the Version file is sometimes black. that's a problem for
parsing them.

About parsing VERSION file, i think that some infos are missing :

-> date of the last modification of version file
-> list of the mail apps that it could be find in a module with thei number
version
-> librairies that was needed to compile them.

Maybe the VERSION file could be write with an XML format, so that it'll be
esasier to parse them and manipultate them ( query them or translate them in
sql data).

For this, it would be cool to have àa command like this : dyneWriteVersion
( like dynemodconf..) that would read/write info in the Version FILE. It
would be easy with this tool to edit the Version file just after one
application was add to a module.

One thing that i'm thinking while writing this few word that the same lib
could be present in different modules ? Myabe i mistake about this.
