Stephen Thomas commented on SQ-558:
-----------------------------------

Your right, good point on kids changing the title without intending to change the project.
My only concern with changing the URI is will that break the ability to detect remixes?  I have been thinking about another feature request where you have "automatic attribution" where you can trace back all the projects this was built upon.

> Currently you cannot create a new version of your own project without overwriting the original (actually the original is saved, but it doesn't appear on the website).  
> It should be possible to do a "uri save as", which changes the URI on a project, though it's not clear where to do this and how.
> Remember, we want to support the case where people change the title of a project without intending to change the project (this happens with kids all the time.)
> Three solutions . . .
> 1) checkmark or button on the Etoys load box or save box
> 2) a link on the project page ("save as")
> 3) after the versions issue, allow "save as" promotion of any version
