OK. There is a short description:
1. At any time during editing of document user can turn on/off revision
tracking.
2. When the revision tracking is on all added text is shown in different
color and deleted text is shown with line through. Status of text is
captured by processing instructions (capturing it by means of DocBook
markup seems too complex to me and it would not work for other DTDs).
3. At any time user can invoke revision approval. During this process
editor will offer each revision for approval step by step. For each
revision user can decide to accept it (=> corresponding revision markup
is removed as well text marked up as deleted is deleted), reject it
(changes are rolled back) or left it untouched. From user point of view
this function is very similar to spell checking.
I hope that it is clear now. You can also see how revisions work in MS
Word or in XMetaL to get better idea.
Thanks,
Jirka
