Hello. I’m currently working on an addon, that operates with armatures.

I want to write an addon version in an armatures custom data for backward compatibility options. I know how to write a custom data. How can I get an addon version outside of __init__.py in some child python module?
I don’t want to duplicate the version number in two places for stability reasons.

Thanks.
