Summary     : The common Horde Framework for all Horde applications
Description :
The Horde Framework provides a common structure and interface for Horde
applications (such as IMP, a web-based mail program). This RPM is
required for all other Horde module RPMs.

The Horde Project writes web applications in PHP and releases them under
Open Source licenses. For more information (including help with Horde
and its modules) please visit http://www.horde.org/.

READ /usr/share/doc/horde-3.1.4/README.Fedora AFTER INSTALLING FOR
INSTRUCTIONS AND SECURITY!

For additional functionality, also install horde-enhanced
)

The point about not including the comment line is 
 a) it is not required in spec,
 b) it does not contain any information required to do the configuration,
 c) it is neither required by the according xml scheme.
I just dislike horde crashing just because of a (missing) cvs (svn)
version information text.
