NID Sequence Testing

February 12, 2003

This entry tests writing the purple numbers to an index for later use by a thing I'm planning to call Space. Given a purple number from a single sequence source, find it's original document. (000044)

Idea is that you use the same sequence/nid generator for all document creation in a domain, no matter what the document creation tool happens to be. In my case I've got this MovableType blog and its associated wiki pulling NIDs from the same generator. (000045)

Space will take a NID and redirect to the original context, or parse out just the structural element that the NID points to. (000046)

There's no reason the nid generator has to only work with local tools. It could be a remote service. (000047)

Didn't work, don't have access to ID. Trying saving twice. (000048)
