"This version" this "Latest version" links

Hi all,

(see ACTION-45 and ACTION-33)

Richard and me discussed offline the "latest vs. this version links" 
topic. We came up with the result that we need to decide this for each 
link. Below is a list of links we have in the BP document. I have 
classified them as follows.

- Links to ITS 1.0 spec: I think we should use either "this version" or 
"latest version". Currently we use both. My preference would be "this 
version" links.
- "Internationalization Best Practices: Handling Right-to-left Scripts 
in XHTML and HTML Content": this is currently a WD, so using a "latest 
version" link might be good since we want to direct people to the 
to-be-published WG note (see the shortname i18n-html-tech-bidi).
- Link to xml lang  and white space definition: I might be convinced now 
that we can use a "latest version" link.
- For the other links, i.e. to Ruby, "Unicode in XML", XHTML 1, xml:id 
and XML Schema, I would prefer a "this version" link.

Looking forward for your feedback,

Felix
