FWIW, this is likely a feature/requirement of a system I'm planning, since we'll be doing regular archiving of a wiki to a "heritage" archive, with the requirement that a snapshot of the wiki for a given timestamp be retrievable from the archive on demand. So in the next 6-9 months this will be something I'll be building if it's not already available (though I may build it on top of the XNodeProvider or whatever results from a cross between the XNodeProvider and priha).

Typically, at timestamp x, if there's a link from one page to another, their contents are related to one another in some way. Now you're a user who wants to have a look at these pages as of timestamp x. The status quo is: * you've got to manually select the suiting version for each page repeatedly * if a page got renamed or deleted in the meantime, it's simply bad luck With a time machine, you'd select the desired time once, and from then on the whole wiki is presented as of this timestamp. PS: Well, ok, the renaming case is a problem, since the identifier changes... This would have to be taken care of, too, when modeling the repository.time machine ------------ Key: JSPWIKI-110 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-110 Project: JSPWiki Issue Type: Improvement Environment: n/a Reporter: Florian Holeczek Priority: Minor Versioning and viewing the history is limited to one single page. If you want to see the whole wiki state as of timestamp X, you have to manually open the corresponding history entry of each page. Therefore, a time machine may be an interesting feature.
