Again, deleting an incident has no sense (in applied world) since the incident _has_ _physically_ occured! In your example the incident with all related stuff should be marked 'archived' and thus go out of scope. Of course, in _sql world_ the above technique is best implemented as DELETE ... CASCADE. That's the point, IMHO. -- Vladimir -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
