I agree, it can be complicated to process a document with mixed versions, if versioning triggers different processing. But if you have global versioning only, then you can't safely use the versioned feature syndication feeds or mashups. Overall, I think this is an argument against versioning as a trigger for different processing behavior. Regards, Maciej
