Workspaces are not versionable, but they can have associated baselines. A
server would not be able to automatically put them under version control.
They are versioning meta-data.
I'd modify Jim's statement just a bit. You can put a workspace collection
under version control, just as you can put any other collection under
version control. What you are tracking by those collection versions are
just the dead properties and bindings to version controlled members of
the workspace collection (not it's unversioned members or live properties).
So a version of a workspace collection is just a collection version,
and doesn't have any of the special properties or behavior of a workspace.
Note that as of -07, any collection can have associated baselines,
not just a workspace collection.
Cheers,
Geoff
