The version attribute should be removed from the bid request. As it is, by the
bidder has read that version attribute, the it will need to have already bound
or otherwise interpreted the top level bid request object. This makes its
usefulness problematic or at best limited, especially if considering binary
formats.
I suggest moving it to an HTTP header called “x-openrtb-version”. Together
with the “content-type” header, the bidder now has full information on
exactly what specification and format it needs to crack open from the POST body.
