Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to new-file-storage FS_FILES versus FS_VERSIONS

Carl, that is a fair point. The problem is that the file-storage
system is so far from usable that the activity you're talking about
seems significantly less likely than the idea of just sharing files
with a certain number of people. The interface isn't even set up to
hide versions you can't read (why would you need to see the
existence of old versions that you can't access?).

Anyhow, this is a rather moot point. File-storage was rather bad.
New-file-storage is a tad better. Unless someone is really
motivated to work on this 3.x version, I think we should focus on
making the 4.x version significantly better, starting with a better
idea of what this module is supposed to do.
