Question on GCT (if I have the abbreviations correct)
Greetings!
Going over the proposals in hopes of meeting later this week for
discussions!
And have a question.
On item 14, page 5 of the original GCT document, it reads:
Text and/or elements may be moved (deleted
from one place and added elsewhere) to one or more other
locations in a document. The change history of an element is
not moved with the element. Content that has been moved from
position A to position B can be moved again from B but it is
deleted from A and so cannot be moved from A in a later
operation.
OK, so if:
The change history of an element is not
moved with the element.
Does that mean a new change history starts at the new location with
a new history?
Except that some history shows the deletion of an element (is that
the end of the history?)
And some other history shows the insertion of an element (is that
the start of a history?)
Where there is a move (delete/add), how do those two histories
connect to each other?
Thanks!
Hope everyone is having a great day!
Patrick
PS: on #5:
Where
a document has more than one CT, the order of the CTs must be
defined.
Shouldn't we go ahead and require that all CT have a defined order?
If we do, what happens if we exchange documents and I made changes
on top of yours. Should we time stamp them? Associate with
particular authors? Or is that covered in the ordering? That is
every document has one change order?
