Welcome aboard! I haven't had a chance to review
http://www.excosoft.se/dev/webdav yet, but I'll try
to address one of the points you raise:
From: Jan Christian Herlitz <J-C.Herlitz@excosoft.se>
* A version of a collection should be able to define the versions for
its children. A collection version will in this respect be a
configuration.
I believe we need both concepts, i.e.
a "collection revision" (whose internal members are versioned-resources)
and a "collection configuration revision" (whose members are a specific
revision for each versioned-resource in the collection).
A collection configuration revision will always pick a revision of the
collection, as well as a revision of each of the versioned-resources
contained in that collection revision.
A new collection revision is created when a versioned-resource is
added or removed from the collection. A new collection configuration
revision is created whenever a different revision of any of the
versioned-resource members is to be selected.
(A picture might be needed here :-).
