Re: DAV:cannot-copy-collection-version precondition for COPY

A collection version does not have enough information in it to produce a 
sensible copy, since it only records the version history of its members, 
not the versions.  So a collection version is useful for updating a 
configuration, but is not useful for creating a new configuration (that's 
what baselines are for).

Cheers,
Geoff
