Marc commented on SLING-848:
----------------------------
Supporting versions is a great feature. Just for the record of future bug
hunters: Mac OS 10.4 + HTTP Basic Authentication cannot handle these links [1].
BTW this was also one of the reasons Rails dropped using ; in URLs [2]. One of
the other reasons was caching but I'm not sure if this still applies.

> Support getting versioned resources by using uri path parameters
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-848
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-848
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: JCR Resource
> Affects Versions: JCR Resource 2.0.2
> Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
>
> Getting versioned content should be support thorough uri path parameters,
> like /something/hello;v=1.1
> For jcr based resources the value of the version should either point to a
> version name or label.
> In order to not change our existing apis, we introduce a new utility method
> which removes all uri path parameters
> and returns a map of these. Every resource provider could use this utility
> method and then decide to act on these
> parameters.
> If a requested version does not exists, a 404 is returned.
> If the requested node does not directly point to a versionable node, the
> algorithm checks the parent hierarchy until a versionable node is found, and
> tries to get the version of this node and then goes down the path again. If
> the versionable node does not have the requested version or the child, a 404
> is returned.
