So, as I understood, it is better to provide this generated version.py ONLY in packages (tar.gz&K), whilst using some kind of hard-coded "dev" version number when working from working copy code. And not to hold this version.py under code control at all, so as in working copy, but only temporarily when generating the package. Right?

@Sergey: yes, that is the general idea: "not to hold this version.py under code control at all": I confirm.

Can you provide an example of how to accomplish this?
