Okay, thanks. Same here.

I looked at the sources. kate's version number is created by using the system release major number - 1. Or 14 - 1 == 13.

kwrite's version number is created by using the system release major number + 1. Or 14 + 1 == 15.

In the old 3.5.x days the versions were 2.5.x and 4.5.x respectively. Now with us moving to R14, the kate and kwrite version numbers looks way out in left field.

I vote we patch both to eliminate the silly " - 1 " and " + 1 " method. Then both editors will have version numbers the same as the system release. That would look more sensible.
