[Zope] Versions and missing products

Hi,

My success rate using versions has been about 50% so far this year.  I reckon 
it's down to the way I work, which tends to be a bit scatty and all over the 
place.  This means that I start a version for a specific task, join the 
version, then somewhere along the lines start fiddling with something else 
I've just remembered, without first remembering to leave the version.

In then end, most of my site gets infected with this version, which makes 
some things break in odd ways...

One disturbing effect I ran into last week was, I think, down to me having 
edited a couple of through-the-web products whilst in a version I shouldn't 
have been in.  I then ran into problems trying to commit the changes I'd made 
and at the end of it all, the two products I'd edited vanished from the "add 
products" list in the rest of the site.

Has anyone any ideas what I can do to get them back and get my site back into 
some semblance of consitency?  I've checked the control_panel/versions panel 
and there are no outstanding commits...

Alex.
