snaps done, work to be done, versioning

The fix for removeUser has been released, the documentation on Access Controls has been documented and the update for rebuild has been deployed on agilewiki.org. Great progress.

The final utilities are dump and restore by cabinet, to allow cabinets to be moved from one server to another. This also requires the RolonIds to be changed, otherwise you can not restore a cabinet once it has been destroyed. It also requires CSecs to be reworked--currently they use RolonIds, which means you can not determine what has happened when destroying a cabinet breaks a CSec reference. All this is coming, but perhaps not right away.

Also I need to work on a number of known bugs before we can call this production.

Another project is sharing cabinets between servers. And another is adding email. There really is a lot of work to do if we are to cover everything handled in the prototypes!

I've also been thinking about replacing all the GUI. It needs it! But more on that later.

And then there is additional integration with semantic references and wiki name resolution. That one should be a lot of fun.

But right now I'm thinking of something small, versioning. I want to break it out as a separate feature in the view command and then write it up. Otherwise I fear that versioning will be lost in with all the Agile stuff. And versioning is one of the more expensive features from an implementation perspective.
