Re: [Hypercontent-users] Revisions problems

[Alex V. <al...@bi...>]

Hi Carl,
	It is possible that one user had a stale draft copy based on the =
=20
older revision. If the first user begins editing but does not save or =20=

discard their changes, after the lock times out (about 4 hours), =20
another user could edit and save a new revision of the file, and the =20
first user could come back and resume their changes without first =20
discarding their (now stale) changes.  Does this sound plausible =20
given what you know about the situation?  I have seen people =20
accidentally click "edit" on an old revision on the revisions screen =20
before as well.  Those are the two scenarios that come to mind.

Cheers,
Alex
