The advantage is, that people are able to see what happened with the
article they're looking at. If the document is out of date, because the
last change was a year ago, we could probably encouraged some people to
change that. Of course a very vague assumption, but not an impossible
one.

It is a very technical approach. The disadvantage about the current
comments are, that our readers don't see the comments.  Though we have
to think about the releases. During releases we should skip to display
this metadata.

That would of course work only if the revision entries were language
dependant. Otherwise If someone translates content from the GIMP
stone age the document seems updated recently to *ALL* readers, but
was translated to a new language only :(

I think most of the content is independent of time anyway. It simply
doesn't matter if a tutorial was written yesterday or two years ago.
Where time (GIMP releases) matter of course is everything that is
related to the reference part of the manual.
May be we should hurry up to get up to date for the 2.2 release (I
guess we are not that far away from that) and then freeze and release
it as gimp-help 1.0. With this we could split up the changelog (which
is btw. pretty large already now) and have a sweet start for bringing
the relevant topics up to gimp 2.4 then.

So if we decide to switch to revhistory elements we need to
- make sure we can hide it from release html / pdf versions
- make it lang dependent (how is this supposed to work with cvs??)
- define in which granularity it should be done (today we do it by
file, but not sect1 sect2 specific)
- introduce it step by step

Actually, I never thought about making this information language
dependant. The current comments aren't language dependent, so this
metadata shouldn't be as well. It is just developer information. The
docs hosted on http://docs.gimp.org are developer snapshots, so I
thought that displaying this information for the developer snapshots
would be a nice to have feature for readers and esp. probably upcoming
writers or proof readers.

Well, a tutorial written for GIMP 1.2 would be more or less unusable
nowadays. Of course, if you really want to understand that specific
feature, you're free to find the necessary triggers. But I think, that
every aspect of the manual is dependent on the GIMP version and
therefore dependent on time.

That wouldn't be the tricky part IMHO. Just using a customized
stylesheet of the current stylesheets which suppresses the info elements
should do the trick.

If we really want to do that, it would work like the current profiling
works. But I don't think we should make it language dependant, just for
the sake of completeness. It's just not worth it IMO.

Good point - haven't thought about that.

> - introduce it step by step
Yep or maybe after a 1.0 release? Hm.. step by step seems to be better
...
