[josm-dev] Version string on "MOTD" page

Hi!

Some time ago, there was a discussion on talk-de that the version string 
  text found on the "Message of the Day" page is a bit strange. A common 
user probably won't get the point which number means which version.


So I've tried to improve this by changing:

en: * Current version is [[Version(tested)]] (development 
[Version(latest)]]) [[Version(running)]]

to:

en: * Your JOSM version is: [[Version(running)]], available is: 
[[Version(tested)]] (development [[Version(latest)]])



Unfortunately, the text now looks pretty strange, as the macro 
[[Version(running)]] not only contains the plain version string (as I 
would expect it), but also something like: "- aktive Version ist 1788"


How to solve this? I would tend to reduce the macro [[Version(running)]] 
to display only the version number and nothing else. However, I don't 
know how/where to change this.

Regards, ULFL
