Subject: [PATCH] Add note that "version required" should be kept upto date. 
 After speaking with Satoshi, it seems only the "Date created" and "Author"
 shouldn't be updated.

Now I 100% find "version required" to be totally useless, as apose to the
5% usefulness in documenting the first version used for the port.
