Since there are Versions, does that mean we'll be able to keep multiple version of an object around?

You allready do keep multiple versions of your objects around. That's how undo works.

Also perhaps even name/describe these changes so that you could switch between these revisions.

This would be like RCS/CVS for Zope.

This is sort of how Versions (for those of you using 1.10.x or lower, we've changed Sessions to Versions to clear up the namespace for "real" sessions) work. When you create a Version, it puts you in your own little work area that looks exactly like the publicly visible area does. Now, you can edit the Versions, break it, change it completely, and it won't show up until you save the sessions. I agree that *I* would feel more comfortable if the terminology were more RCS/CVS (check out, check in, add, remove, commit) but would everyone else? This would require a proposal from the community. -Michel

Anything in the works on this front?
