Hi,

I'm thinking about the database layer of publex, and I have some questions..

First of all, the DB functionality. As far as I understand, the DB will store
the documents (so we need to be able to send those files to DB and get them
to clients) this functionality is simply implemented using Microsoft.Data.SqlXml
class.
Second thing is authentication and authorization. How will publex menage this
matter? Will it use some general authentication for each client instance (and
then the DB access will allow anonymous users) or there will be separate class
(and DB table) for manageing users acounts.
Version controling. We were talking about it on IRC chanel: 
cyqotiq: "various people use this program to work on a single Documentation
project, someone will need to be a document control person. This person will
need to know where any given document is at any given time". So my guess is
that publex will use some kind of copy-modify-merge model. User makes a copy
of project files to his local drive the DB registers which user is working on
which file (so the "document control person" knows what is going on) and previously
copyed files not saved back to DB are marked out-of-date.

I just started thinking about this, so if I'm completely wrong I would appreciate
your insights.
