It seems that there are two choices: a) A versioned resource contains all of the revisions (by reference), and holds all of the pred/succ relationships, and contains any working resources (by reference) associated with the versioned resource. The history resource also has these same state items, which are a duplicate of the items on the versioned resource. b) A versioned resource only holds a pointer to the history resource. The history resource contains all of the revisions (by reference), and holds all of the pred/succ relationships, and contains any working resources (by reference) associated with the versioned resource. c) Neither (implying I've misunderstood things). I'm curious as to which was intended. - Jim
