Ketty, is one of the teachers that took part in the Arahuay Pilot (first
pilot for the OLPC project in Perú). As she was very enthusiastic testing
the Network, her feedback here refers to the convenience (or need) for
participants
of being able to track all modifications made by authors to the resources
(ideas, questions, problems, reviews).

Basically Ketty's concern had to do with the fact that some comments will
end up obsolete if not updated in accordance with the resource's evolution
(editing). Currently only latest edition date and content is visible for
participants.

One step we could give in this direction, would be to implement
notifications and define participants will automatically become "followers"
of the X resource after having at least an effective interaction (like
giving a solution or making a comment).

I think it will be a good start to attach activity objects (from
