isaac,

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: From: isaac
:
: we had originally planned the database so that
: each item would have a content history (10 levels
: probably), with each level time- and user-stamped.
: publishers could back track through the history
: (ie, a 10-level undo feature).
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

if you're going to go that far you might as well let them save the entire
document history and delete from that history at will.

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: but it's been relegated to the lowest priority.
: tonnes of development time required for minimal
: usage/return.
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

agreed.

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: implemented library snippets (headers and footers
: for specific documents).
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

nice feature.

:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
: next step are itemsets (enabling multi-part articles,
: etc).
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

depending on how you implement it in the database it could be easy or it
could be really difficult.

good luck,

.jeff
