RE: poor version management in archetype editor


A combination of a good version management tool and an internal configuration management policy works well for us, I would be happy to discuss this with others.
 
We use subversion as our version management tool and find it indispensible for us.. I would be interested to hear what other archetype/template authors use for their configuration management.

Subject: poor version management in archetype editor

Dear all,

Currently underway in making archetypes using the Ocean archetype editor we encounter a major flaw in the tool.

It is impossible to maintain version management, which leads to many inconsistencies in the archetypes.

Also, while participating in the review of archetypes such as blood pressure, the old (before review) and the new (after review) have the same version.

I think this is a very urgent matter to solve, otherwise we will end up with heaps of archetypes on the same subject that are different.

In particular a requirement is that an author, while developing, is able to have a versioning structure that allows going back to earlier versions, or work on improvements while not changing an existing version directly.

In other words: missing versioning is making it hard to produce archetypes.

Sincerely yours,

dr. William TF Goossen
