Yes #1, though given the time frame for preview–is there a way to still
give some visual cue when someone has made edits on your item. I've
presented some ideas–I didn't know if the color coding idea might be too
difficult for the short term. I'm also looking to see if anyone else has
any other ideas besides the ones I presented.
I think if Chandler stores the archived items, then displaying what was
edited (erased) may not be as important for now, but more importantly is
what was added/changed, as in an email thread. Currently as I understand
it, everything is just black text and one doesn't know if there were
changes made to the original document and where. Does that make sense?

1) Are you looking for comments on developer difficulty for each of
the proposed visual solutions for showing information that has been
edited ie: red text vs strike through etc.
I assume we are talking about #1 and you are asking about what is
possible from a dev perspective. I suspect that the harder piece would
be actually storing what used to be there rather than whether or not
we display this in red. Now if I edit an item, whatever was in the
time field before I changed it from 1:00pm to 2:00pm is basically
gone. I might be wrong at that. We weren't going to handle versions
for Preview but might for 1.0.
