Hi, Can't you just run the versioncontrolMethod() on each of your files (and collections if you want) to turn versioning on for them? ie. rather than reimport all of the data? When we add data to our Slide server we explicitly control versioning from our client (ie. we have auto-versioning turned off and we call the versioncontrolMethod() from the Slide WebDAV client ourselves to turn version control on for each file individually. You can turn on versioning for your existing resources programmatically by getting a WebdavResource to each object then calling the versioncontrolMethod() of WebdavResource to put that resource under version control. You will need to have auto-versioning off while doing this, but after you have put all of your existing files under version control you should be able to switch auto-versioning on again if you use it.
I haven't read the important note you refer to on the website though so I may not know what the context of your problem is...
