I would say that by this we'd have to mean that a paper cannot change.  In 
that way it has to behave like a print version.  Once it's set, than it 
can't change, otherwise the voting and review process would no longer match the 
current state of the paper.

Rather, like print, if a new paper is submitted, even by the same author on 
the same topic, it has to be a new entry in "this month's" journal, not a 
modification of a now-historical version.
