Hi Matthias,

I agree with Eike and Thorsten, the MediaWiki does a much
better job 
here than any manual solution can.

Sorry, but I don't consider this a change to be remembered
at all. If 
the links were misspelled and now are correct, that is fine,
but 
posterity does not need to know, or could you mention a use
case for 
this example? However, MediaWiki does even remember that.

But with no effort, but adding a good sumary.

The most important readers are developers and QA, and most
times they 
will want to know nothing but the latest revision.

Anyway ...
the MediaWiki solution is technically perfect. Regarding
content, it 
makes IMHO much more sense for the author to add a
meaningful 
version-comment, than to write a text that repeats part of
the 
information the wiki provides anyway.
