Subject: RE: WeDAV Versioning Summary - Mutability
I am having trouble reconciling the following two sentences:
"A checked in revision cannot be modified by anyone at any time."
and
"A revision may be checked in as mutable or immutable."
I find the whole issue of mutable to be...strange and out of scope for a
versioning system. I believe we produce real value if the WebDAV versioning
specification can just provide for versioning support, as widely accepted
and implemented, and deal with this "mutable" concept in an add-on
specification.
