Hi Ronald True...historical versions of these objects are not available in any form for privacy and security reasons.
Personally I don't think MNTNER objects should be visible at all to the public. I don't know of any other service on the internet where details of how you secure your data are open to the public. Being able to query for someone else's MNTNER object is a throw back to the days when only nice people used the internet :) cheers denis co-chair DB-WG On Wed, 2 Dec 2020 at 23:25, Ronald F.
