2007/3/8, Daniel Mayer maveric149@yahoo.com:
One very often requested functionality outside the Wikimedia fold is to use user groups to limit/control editing and viewing of pages (perhaps based on namespace). My point, is to just keep that and other possible uses - even those we never plan to use in Wikimedialand - in mind.
The possibility that IPs see the last sighted version, while logged in users see the current one is part of the proposal. Otherwise, what I like about open Source is that the people outside of Wikimedialand can just code if they need it so much :-)
Bye,
Philipp
