How to tell from build log which version of the build toolkit is being used

Hi.

In the console of of a Jenkins job using the Team Concert Plugin, and then the build toolkit, there is only this reference to the source fetch step:

13:42:29 RTC : checkout...
13:42:32 RTC Checkout : Source control setup
13:42:32 RTC Checkout : Accepting changes into workspace "Workspace_name" ...
13:42:34 Using build definition configuration.
13:42:34 Fetching files from workspace "Workspace_name".
13:42:35 RTC Checkout : Fetching files to fetch destination "C:\jenkins\workspace\Job_name" ...
13:42:37 RTC Checkout : Fetching Completed
But, issue is, there may be a number of build tool kits defined, one is the Jenkins global default, but the slave  connection or  the Jenkins job itself may have overridden this. 

The information above that is echoed out to the job console log should show which toolkit is being used.
Am using buildtoolkits 5.0.2 and 6.0.3.  While testing the upgrade to 6.0.3, would be nice to know that if my job is actually the using the toolkit I am trying to test.

Rick,

I was not able to find to find a way to show this information. I think it would be valuable to have something like this. Please open an enhancement request.

Thanks, Ralph.  I am unsure how to open a enhancement. Do you have a link where I would do that ?

I opened RFE to have a method for the Plain Client emit info about the version, build, etc...
