My apologies for not being there.  We just adopted our second child (another boy, born last Wednesday) on Saturday so I wasn't in the office yesterday.

Agenda:

- Configurations and Snapshots.
  (See Jim Amsden's "How to create configurations" message)

  - Terminology: To avoid (for now) the issue of what things are
    called, let's use the term "revision-map" to name the resource
    that selects one revision from each of a set of versioned-resources.

  - Issue: Is a "snapshot" operation the only way to create a
    revision-map (or can you create an empty revision-map and
    modify it incrementally.

  - Issue: What is the "scope" of the snapshot operation.

  - Issue: If we model a version-map as a revision (a "snapshot")
    of a special kind of versioned-resource, what can you modify
    about a checked out snapshot (just its scope)?  Is the
    revision-map determined by the workspace selection at checkin
    time, or some other way?
