Hi Karl!
I don't know if this is exactly what you want, but what if you...
1, Create a new XML file that you will only use as the source for a conref
2, Move your historical content into a <section> or a <div> element within that
new XML file
3, Place a condition on the <section> or <div> element containing the
historical content, like product="historical" or maybe
deliveryTarget="historical"
4, Define that condition in your DITAVAL file, for example, <prop
action="exclude" att="deliveryTarget" val="historical"/>
5, In the current file, insert a conref to the historical content
Because the information is in a conref, the content will be read only when you
are in the current/parent file (unless you double-click it to open it).
Because the content is marked with a "historical" condition, and "historical"
is defined to be excluded, it will not show up in the output.

Subject: {Spam}[oXygen-user] Read only section of Xml
Hello Group!
I'm wondering if there is a way to markup a section of xml as readonly and then
for Oxygen to honor this by either blocking or warning you of making changes
within this section.
Scenario is simple. You have current content in some Xml node and then you
stash historical content in some other Xml node that you intend to keep around
but not to edit.
This would be useful to me because I'll take the current information in my Xml
and stuff it into the historical section of my Xml as I roll into a new season.
The issue I am having is accidentally changing content in the historical
section of my Xml but I intended to make those changes in the current Xml node.
This is not mission critical, but would be a nice feature.
Karl..
