Description

At start time, TT checks whether its version is compatible with JT.
The condition is too restrictive.
It will shut down itself if one of the following conditions fail:

• the version numbers must match
• the revision numbers must match
• the user ids who build the jar must match
• the build times must match

I think it should check the major part of the version numbers only (thus any version like 0.19.xxxx should be compatible).
