Subject: DAV:revisions property for a workspace resource
Jim Amsden requested that the list of revisions in a workspace
be available as a property. I pushed back a bit by saying that
this would make label-based workspace implementations hard, since
such a workspace implementation would not know what has been labeled.
Jim responded by saying that normally the labeled revisions would
be those in a fixed number of collections, and so such an implementation
would be able to find the revisions if it remembered the list of
relevant collections.
That makes sense to me, so I propose that we do as Jim suggests, and
make the list of revisions in a workspace available as a property.
In particular, I propose that we use the DAV:revisions property,
which contains a list of stable URL's to the relevant revisions
(like the versioned resource DAV:revisions property, and the activity
DAV:revisions property).
Any objections?
Cheers,
Geoff
