[theme-reviewers] Review Ticket 2274

[Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)]

Okay so it's not a security issue ;)

Wasn't there a conversation about this however where if people knew the ver. 
# of wordpress they could use whatever method is used known to inject into 
that ver?

but then again I seem to recall a conversation where it doesn't matter since 
someone can find out the ver. # anyways regardless if it's in the meta or 
written someplace... so yeah, Otto is the person to know on this

Showing version numbers is not a security issue.
