planned

The ability to view revision history with username and saved/published time stamp and possibly rollback to a previous state for individual windows and templates. This would be very nice to have on the right click menu on the Window/Template in Designer.

This touches the the issue that Designer do not track actual changes very well. Designer will ask you for saving changes regardles if there is any. For both templates and windows at least.
-In real life this causes frustration because the original purpose of this dialog is undermined. It becomes a reflex to just save and close. When several people work together this causes merge conflicts and gets out of hand.
-Please track changes, indicate which resources are changed (at least like notepad does with a "*") -and even better implement some kind change log and audit posibility
-And even even better; save resources in plain xml so developers may version control this ourselves

This is going to be something you can do with better version control support.

awalker: Can we have more detail about the schedule of this major update?

This would be very helpful in ignition systems when there are many developers using the designer at the same time. Sometimes it is difficult to track which user last changed a window or a template.
