Description _ sandipchitale 2007-04-16 17:45:36 UTC 
On the module view page there is a field called:

Works with:

and on the mopdule entry and update page there is field:

Developed with:

They seems to be related but not clear obvious how. I may have developed a 
module using NB5.5 but it may work in NB5.5 as well as NB6.0.

Also the 

Developed with:

combobox always resets to 6.x every time I go to modify page.

IMHO the Works with functionality is independent of Developed with 
functionality. The Works with should be really a set of check boxes with well 
known releases

[ ] 5.0
[ ] 5.5
[ ] 5.5.1 (beta) (example only)
[ ] 5.5.1
[ ] :
[ ] :
[ ] 6.0 M8
[ ] 6.0 date+

and so on.

Ive fixed this by changing the "Developed With" field to "Versions Supported"
and I made the field a text field.  I think this is an easier usage model and
also this will minimize changes to the Plugin Portal when new versions of
NetBeans come out.

The fix is currently on the test machine and will be pushed to production next
week sometime.
