Using an xwiki space for help documentation for a product. The issue
being that the entire help documentation for an older version of the
product still needs to be available for people using that product.
My current plan is to have one main space for all the documentation,
then add a new space for each version, and do includes for the
proper documents using their revision numbers.
My questions are:
1. Is there a better way for me to do this?
Have one space per version without doing includes on revision numbers.
Basically copy all documents in a space when a version is released.
Yes, using some sort of batch copy/export-import to a new space should work fine. I
thought of it about a minute after sending the email. Hate when that happens.
2. Would space versioning, or something of the like be
easy enough
to implement that I could just make my own plugin that handled it.

I guess you could implement some hadhoc version by storing all
versions of each document in a given space and implementing some save/
restore based on this. It looks overkill for your need though.
Well, not only do we have product versions, but we have component versions within the
product that aren't reflected by the product version.
But, rather than complicate things with component based versioning, I can just setup xwiki
control pages that query the response parameters, and include the correct component
documentation based on that.
Anyways, that was everything I needed, thanks for your time.
