Subject: RE: revision versus version
Yes, Tim identified the reason for the distinction.
In particular, it would be too easy to confuse a "version resource"
(i.e. what we call a "revision") with a "versioned resource"
(i.e. what we call a "versioned resource").
Cheers,
Geoff

Although I didn't invert the terms, I like them since if we used 'version'
instead of revision, it would be unclear if you were using the noun or
transitive verb (i.e., do you mean 'the version' or 'to version something'.
Just my 2 pfennig :-)
