    That is correct, the DAV:revision-set property of a history
    resource is unordered.  I agree that the benefit of such an ordering
    would be minimal, and so it is not worth requiring a server
    to maintain such an ordering.
    
    Cheers,
    Geoff

    From reading the -05 draft, the revision-set property (found on history,
    baseline, and activity resource) contains an *unordered* list of revision
    URLs.  Would it be fair to say that a client cannot make any assumptions
    about the ordering of revision URLs in the revision-set property?  An
    alternative might be to order them according to some version/branch
    numbering scheme, but this seems like a bit of work for not much benefit.
