correspondence: Wrong version string in module?

Dear Wolfgang,


looking at the version string of the a module `letter-imp-knuth.mkiv` I
think the version string is incorrect.

        correspondence $ more files/letter-imp-knuth.mkiv
        %D \module
        %D   [     file=letter-imp-knuth,
        %D      version=2012.12.26,
        %D        title=\CONTEXT\ User Module,
        %D     subtitle=Knuth letter style,
        %D       author=Wolfgang Schuster,
        %D         date=\currentdate,
        %D    copyright=Wolfgang Schuster,
        %D      license=GNU General Public License]
        […]

I guess the date is used and this is from the future.


Thanks,

Paul

Y'know, Hans and Wolfgang having time travel powers would explain an
awful lot. The inhuman speed of development ... the instantaneous
answers ... and that haunting feeling, impossible but inescapable,
that ConTeXt is "bigger on the inside".

Did not think of that. But now that you mention this, this sounds
reasonable. ;-)

Thanks,

PS: So, Wolfgang, please share the lotto numbers for the time until
December with me. ;-)

Probably only the tip of the iceberg of what they are giving us for 
Christmas. :)

Fixed but it doesn’t matter what’s written there because the information
in this block is only used when you generate a PDF from the module source.
