Platform.pi_version() regex fails

[elevenchars]

• Platform/operating system (i.e. Raspberry Pi with Raspbian operating system, Windows 32-bit, Windows 64-bit, Mac OSX 64-bit, etc.): INSERT PLATFORM/OPERATING SYSTEM HERE rpi 3 running jessie
• Python version (run python -version or python3 -version): INSERT PYTHON VERSION HERE

2.7.9

• Error message you are receiving, including any Python exception traces: **INSERT ERROR MESAGE/EXCEPTION TRACES HERE***

whenever i run Platform.pi_version(), it returns None, which led me to think that the regex was not parsing the info from /proc/cpuinfo properly. i was able to get it to grab the hardware group properly by changing the regex to this: Hardware\\t+:\s+(\w+) When re.match parses cpuinfo it reads in the escaped characters. I am sure there is a more elegant solution but I am not familiar enough with python to parse cpuinfo with the characters unescaped.

run Platform.pi_version()

This was fixed last year with a few other changes--trying the platform pi_version function now returns the correct version. Thanks for raising the issue!
