Hello,
what do you think about, that Slide "normally" will not using versioning,
but we will implement a new command, which puts a resource under version
control. From this point on, slide creates a new version each time a
put/unlock is performed. Possibly some other version control commands could
be implemented in a light weight fasion to allow a reasonable amount of
versioning (without the full blown DELTA-V standard). Anyway I believe these
new commands should be compatible with deta-v.
Best regards
Juergen Pill

Thanks for the info.
I could be wrong, but I don't think that was the case with the older drafts.
