So the meaning is that the last version of a node is saved in a table called 
node_current, instead, all the old version are saved into a node table that has 
the number of the version? 
So the node is created in the current_node table, when it is modified the raw 
is moved into the nodes table and the current_nodes is updated with the new 
change. It is correct?

Thanks for pointing out this,
Lorenzo
