in reply to include revision number in sig class

As far as I am concerned, PodMaster can put what he wants in his signature but how much work would it be for someone to make the change? Does everyone start with rev0 on their current sig (with rev1?). Will any change mean a new revision number?

    I had envisioned any change bumping the revision number. No opinion on the rev0 or rev1 (or even pure numeric 0 or 1) but everyone would start the same.

      I hate to say, but I very much doubt that this will happen. FWICT it would require a new field in the DB, and frankly for minimal utility. And I say this from the POV that I am almost certainly going to be the one who patches it next. To be honest, I dont even want to support Aristotles "two-classes-in-one" tags.

      But maybe a god will see your request and do the required DB stuff and then itll happen, but they have an awful lot of other stuff to do thats higher priority.

      Sorry bud. It is a good idea on paper at least, but...
