Just to make things clear; the version Konstantin refers to is 1.0.9-10

I have used Clonezilla Live 1.0.9-10 for both Clonezilla-SysRescCD 2.2.0 (the 
version Konstantin uses) and Clonezilla-SysRescCD 2.3.0 (new version released 
just today)

The file Clonezilla-Live-Version contains
        clonezilla-live-20080221 for 2.2.0
        clonezilla-live-20080307 for 2.3.0

As I understand it, this has to do with repacking. I believe that while 
repacking, the ISO file creation script (ocs-iso) modifies this file, adding 
the ISO creation date to it, so that it's clear that this is not the original 
Clonezilla Live CD. This is just my guess, but it makes sense, since the file 
actually does contain the ISO creation date.

Steven can you confirm this?
