[Qgis-developer] Version number in plugin path?

[Barry Rowlingson]

Given the API changes between 0.11 and 1.0, wouldn't it be sensible to
put the version number in plugin paths? So that plugins for 0.11 would
be in ~user/.qgis/python/plugins/0.11/ and those for 1.0 would be in
~user/.qgis/python/plugins/1.0/?

The granularity of the version number in the path only needs to match
that of the api stability, so if the next api change is for 2.0, then
there's probably no need to have a /1.1/ plugin folder.

Just a thought. The R stats package does this and it works nicely.
