I believe that the current permissions on the current version should be applied to all versions and not the permissions at the time the version was created. This is how we did it with Livelink and our reasoning at the time was as follows:
1) If a user is removed from access to the current version, this is usually because the owner of the document wants the content of the document removed from view for that user (or group).
2) If a user is granted access to a document, then all previous versions are also granted, for a similar reason.
3) Access to specific versions without access to all versions was possible in Livelink with a concept we called "generations" that allowed a specific version of a document to appear to the system as a separate "generation" document.
Michael,
This sounds fairly reasonable. My suggestions before were not intended as a "this is the way it should work", but more intended as a way to spark some discussion of the possible approaches - looks like it worked :-)
The "generations" stuff looks interesting - but somewhat unrelated. I think we can (should) probably implement just 1 & 2 initially.
Mike
