Sorry for the delay in responding. I was out of the office for a week. Oh,
notice the address change too - I work for ColabNet now instead of OpenAvenue,
but
I'm still doing much the same work.
No better suggestion - that sounds pretty good, but you did leave me with a
question.
Are these patched backwards/forwards compatible? i.e. what happens when the
client and server are out of synch on any of these patches?
ME = multiple_edits, R = reservations, MER = multiple_edits+reservations, ! =
not
present (pre-patch):
Client Server Result
---------- ---------- ----------
ME !ME ???
!ME ME ???
R !R ???
!R R ???
MER !MER ???
!MER MER ???
