+Cryptosporidium-623 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Is there a place where I can see some sort of "revision history/changelog" of the geocaching guidelines? I'd be interested in seeing how the rules evolved over time and when certain changes were/are incorporated. Does it exist? Is it accessible by mere mortals?

Here is one way to do it: The Wayback Machine Quote Link to comment
+StarBrand Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 If nothing else - try the wayback machine. http://waybackmachine.org/*/http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx Quote Link to comment
+Cryptosporidium-623 Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 If nothing else - try the wayback machine. http://waybackmachine.org/*/http://www.geocaching.com/about/guidelines.aspx Thanks. That will work for a "stare and compare" in lieu of a revision log. Quote Link to comment
knowschad Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I agree that a Wikipedia style delta log would be wonderful for seeing the guideline changes, although when the format totally changes, as it did recently when they were added to the knowledge books, the changes would be too many to compare with. I would also love to see notifications when there are changes made. Quote Link to comment
+keehotee Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Does the wayback machine go back far enough? I'd heard Moses found the original guidelines scratched into the back of one of the tablets on Mt Sinai while he was looking for the original original stash.... Quote Link to comment

+DanOCan Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I'd love to see this as well. It would be very handy to have exact dates when things changed, such as: - End of Locationless / Virtuals / Webcams - End of ALRs - Introduction of Wherigo Quote Link to comment
