Re: Symbol's value as variable is void: org-version

[Carsten Dominik <carsten.dominik@gmail.com>]

Dear all,

I am sure I missed the discussion about this - but I do not understand why
org-version is not loaded by org.el by default.  Really, this variable belongs into org.el, and if it is not there, org.el should require org-version.el.

My 5c, of course.
