Nope -- I meant the person who created the file, what you call 'Owner' below. >> - Other users/devices sharing this Document > > Not sure to understand. Mostly because you put users and devices > together. Well, theoretically you could share a document with both a user (ex: I share a document with Quentin) or a device (ex: I share a document on my website). Currently, most people would probably 'send' rather than 'share' a document to a website, but I could see, in the future, the case where any updates made to a shared page are reflected back to the "original" document. > - Comment/Description Yep. > - URL We shouldn't need URL if we're tracking what devices (ie: web servers) are sharing the document... unless you want to track the URL where something was _retrieved_ from (rather than where it's posted). > - Owner (this is related to the next one) Yep -- what I called Creator. > - Permissions I, personally, think permissions are very, very confusing when done the traditional Unix-y way (especially Groups). Do we have some better way to manage file access?

File versioning within the file is a feature that I really, really want (so I don't have to have a zillion versions of any given file on my computer, as I do currently). > - Number of elements (in a folder or a project… may be also valid for > a document if you consider all its components) Yep. > - Persons/Contacts related to this element Yep. > All document-type specific metadatas like Authors, Copyright, > Summary, Languages, Company and more for a text document.

License would be particularly good to be able to store within the document as well.
