Greg Brown commented on PIVOT-746:
----------------------------------

I was not aware of Package#getSpecificationVersion(), etc. - good find. I 
assume that this pulls the version info from the JAR manifest?



> Add API to return Version of Pivot retrieved from "build.properties"

> Would be helpful to be able to determine programmatically what the version of 
> Pivot is.  The simplest method is to include "build.properties" which is the 
> original source of this information in the packaged .jar files and then to 
> provide an API to read and parse this value into a Version structure.
