Form builder and version control

haba713
Hi! We've traditionally authored XForms using an XML editor and used CVS
for version control. Orbeon forms builder is very interesting but it
stores XForms documents (the form itself) into an XML repository. What
kind of arrangement do you suggest for the version control of form
documents that are built using Orbeon forms editor?

Harri,

You could implement your own persistence layer with versioning
support. It is based on a REST API:

http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/contributor-guide/form-builder-integration-notes#TOC-Persistence-API

Built-in versioning in Form Builder/Form Runner would be ideal, but
somebody will probably have to sponsor that ;)
