In fact, I'm not sure the VERSION.xsl file should actually be part of a package. (It is right now being used by the build process, but as I have been working hard to simplify that, I'm actually considering to get rid of that file. There is a lot of obsolete logic in it. (I can reproduce your findings, though: the 'nons' VERSION.xsl file reports 'snapshot', while the one from the namespace package reports '1.79.2'. I'm confident that the stylesheets correspond to the correct version, though, so I recommend to disregard the content of the VERSION.xsl file. (We may want to think about some other way to represent package metadata, if that is important. But I'd definitely argue against using an XSL file to carry that. :-) ) Meanwhile, feel free to submit an issue about 'snapshot' being reported in VERSION.xsl, so we can make sure the error either gets fixed or the file removed from future releases.
