Upgrades : Revision indications
Hello Alex!

A big help would be :

In every file whereever there are areas that are revised gets an official commenting line like

# revision 1.01 start

... code...

# revision 1.01 finish

With this system we know that only that particular areas needs to be revised to any file. Also a readme file will tell which are the files that have been revised and the importance. Not just bug fixes. This helps to build up a system from the begining with all the links SQL users to have a custom modifications going on and also to keep pace with the revisions. Moreover this way of commenting gives a system where all the line numbers are given by you officially and can also then be refered at a later date in case of problem. So everyone knows which line one is talking about.

It could be only a simple revision of a line or even a set of lines of perl codes. Later in use all the users can erase the codes for the final use, if they want or wanna bring down the bytes of their cgi.

Otherwise atleast it can be a good mess for people who wants to customize their cgis Wink which is what you do not wish your users to end up with such disappointments.
