Somehow I think if you don't know the release version, it's akin to forgetting your kids name, but that is why I am asking the question, sort of a sanity check.

Depends on size of projects, if the person is in a large or small R&D, the number of projects, the number of employees they manage, etc.
I am a sole developer and have over 20 "production" apps out. I don't know the "current" version of every one of them, but of only the current one I'm working on and of the most recent major changes in (most of) them.
It's not so much knowing the "current" version as much as it is knowing the "current" set of major changes that are presently deployed and what set of new changes, well, high priority ones if a big list, are being worked on that matters more.
We humans remember things more by object-based association than numbers/versions.
I can't tell you exactly about many of my birthdays, but I do remember significant events which occurred on or around some birthdays.
Used to work at a company that had it's meeting rooms named like 2NW2-R & 2NW2-L, which meant Building 2, NW area, 2nd floor, Right (or Left) side. People had to friggin use a compass to figure out just "NW".
So, I proposed the mtg rooms be named, such as after nearby mountain ranges.
After a few weeks, when someone said the meeting room was in "Sawtooth" or "Cascade", they new *exactly* which room it was.
This naming scheme for mtg rooms came from when I was at a prior employer. Each floor of each building had a naming scheme. One such naming scheme was to name rooms with words that stared with "In" but *not* include "In" in the actual name, such as Cognito, Dispensable, Coherent, Visible, Hospitable.
"Where's the vendor meeting, Bryan?" "It's in Coherent or in Hospitable, Tom."
The look on vendor's faces: Priceless!

If that is the biggest problem that you have to worry about in your company then I suspect you have it very good.

My pm neither knows nor cares about the release number, she will however discuss in detail the functionality of every critical feature in about 9 projects.

Everytime there's any news about independence only two MSPs, Salmond and Sturgeon are seen on national TV news. I thought there were lots of other MSPs north of t'wall so what are they saying or are they just sitting, saying nothing? From what I read, Sturgeon is his b*tch and Salmond is her p*mp. But there must be other MSP's with ideas and a mouth to express them as well? Shirley?

How is that "no politicking"?

I don't want to go into the merits of whether independence is good or not I'm just curious why only those two are the people we ever see or here.

I'm pretty sure that Cameron et al may state publicly that it is a bad idea but the tories would love it if they could solve the west lothian question and get rid of all those pesky Scottish labout MPs in one fell swoop.

This was widely reported in the press a couple of weeks ago. Basically, the SNP launched their independence manifesto and Salmond and Sturgeon would hit the studios straight away. When the other parties complained about this, and stated that they weren't going to get a proper chance to debate this today, the SNP pointed out that - at over 600 pages - it might take them a little while to go through the documentation and actually work out what's in there.

Picking up OG's suggestion:
Page 425, paragraph 4, sentence 7 and 8: "We will also provide Deep Fried Mars Bars on the Scottish NHS. This will be funded by the tax revenues raised on sales of nuclear waste to IrnBru."

You see. No politicking! They had to be out there somewhere, doing something. Deep fried Mars bar, indeed.

Have you ever tried one? a molten fatty blob of goo surrounded by batter & the heat, never mind pop tarts / jam rolly polly <<gollum voice="">> It Burns, so it does<>

Never have. Maybe the Scots should apply to the EU (when they join ) and have it declared as an Appellation d'origine contrôlée.

Trust me, that's pretty good advice with more regional delicacies.
Take Laverbread for example. Please, take it, take it all. I don't want it anywhere near me.
If you don't know what it is, for aroma think of seaweed boiled to death in vinegar. Then for the visuals think dark green cowpat. You don't want to think about the taste.
