Enhancement
Topincs files and versioning
Issue description
Some physical files are connected logically since the user perceives them to be a new version of the same thing, e.g. a written document or a presentation. Consider supporting this in Topincs.
One requirement is that there should be a stable URL for the logical product. Most likely it is necessary to have URLs for specific versions.
Developer comments
The big question is whether the logical product is an information resource (=something with a subject locator, a digital object). If yes, we could subtype Topincs file and provide extra functionality around it (e.g. upload new version). If not, it would be necessary to create a new abstract topic type which Topincs admins can subtype and gain access to the wanted functionality.
It is possible to implement such a behavior with the functionality of Topincs 7.2 and solve this on the domain level rather the on the Topincs system level. It might be worth to standarize this functionality on the system level since it is frequently occuring requirement.
