[Proposal] Document comments should not create new versions
Hi, This is more a matter of opinions. Should a comment increase the version of a document? I'd say yes, but the view of simple users is that a comment should not affect the document, as it is something describing the document, not belonging to the document. So we should have a parameter that configures this. WDYT? Sergiu -- http://purl.org/net/sergiu
Hi, This is not only related to comments but also to tags (also objects) and maybe also attachments. The behavior you describe here for comments is taken by confluence and I personally find it more intuitive -- since it preserves the "forum metaphor" for the comments (on a forum you can't "revert" what other people say). However it's very hard to tell what would be best for the users (unless you do a case study in which you ask 100+ users). The only question about having it as an option (for each class I suppose if you want something generic) is how hard it is to implement and roll-in ?
