...hopefully, with such in place, we can at least restore the historic linkages. Future linkages to revisions will likely need to use the ugly hashes (until it becomes more clear regarding how version tagging may be handled). Hopefully the promise of more frequent versions will mitigate this to some degree, and enable reliance on version numbers for reporting.

Regarding the Version Compatibility template, it's current format could be preserved by associating revisions with dates and then revising the template to use some date parsing rather than the raw version numbers to scale the entries. Setting up the associations would be a PITA, but I'm guessing it could be extracted from GIT and appropriate wiki content parsed out without too much trouble. However, maintaining such seem problematic, so I'm guessing we'll likely end up with just a shaded table.[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] 06:29, 22 August 2011 (CEST)
