Why to need more?
I had a look at the java folder in trunk. The following files contain SVN keywords outside of javadoc but inside comments (it seems they only use $Id): Java-Files: javax/servlet/AsyncContext.java javax/servlet/AsyncEvent.java javax/servlet/AsyncListener.java javax/servlet/DispatcherType.java javax/servlet/FilterRegistration.java javax/servlet/Registration.java javax/servlet/ServletContainerInitializer.java javax/servlet/ServletRegistration.java javax/servlet/SessionCookieConfig.java javax/servlet/SessionTrackingMode.java javax/servlet/annotation/HandlesTypes.java javax/servlet/annotation/MultipartConfig.java javax/servlet/annotation/WebFilter.java javax/servlet/annotation/WebInitParam.java javax/servlet/annotation/WebListener.java javax/servlet/annotation/WebServlet.java org/apache/catalina/startup/ConnectorCreateRule.java org/apache/catalina/startup/SetNextNamingRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/AbstractObjectCreationFactory.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/AbstractRulesImpl.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/ArrayStack.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/CallMethodRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/CallParamRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/Digester.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/FactoryCreateRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/GenericParser.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/NodeCreateRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/ObjectCreateRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/ObjectCreationFactory.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/ObjectParamRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/ParserFeatureSetterFactory.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/PathCallParamRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/Rule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/RuleSet.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/RuleSetBase.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/Rules.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/RulesBase.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/SetNextRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/SetPropertiesRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/SetPropertyRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/SetRootRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/SetTopRule.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/WithDefaultsRulesWrapper.java org/apache/tomcat/util/digester/XercesParser.java org/apache/tomcat/util/net/SSLSessionManager.java LocalStrings.properties: javax/servlet/http/LocalStrings_es.properties org/apache/catalina/realm/LocalStrings.properties org/apache/catalina/realm/LocalStrings_es.properties org/apache/catalina/realm/LocalStrings_fr.properties org/apache/catalina/realm/LocalStrings_ja.properties org/apache/coyote/ajp/LocalStrings.properties org/apache/coyote/http11/LocalStrings.properties org/apache/coyote/http11/LocalStrings_es.properties org/apache/coyote/http11/LocalStrings_fr.properties org/apache/coyote/http11/LocalStrings_ja.properties org/apache/jasper/resources/LocalStrings.properties org/apache/jasper/resources/LocalStrings_es.properties org/apache/jasper/resources/LocalStrings_fr.properties org/apache/jasper/resources/LocalStrings_ja.properties org/apache/naming/LocalStrings_es.properties Others javax/servlet/resources/XMLSchema.dtd javax/servlet/resources/datatypes.dtd org/apache/tomcat/util/modeler/mbeans-descriptors.dtd org/apache/tomcat/util/http/fileupload/package.html I fully agree in getting rid of Date, Revision and Author. I'm not so sure about using Id. Somehow I like the idea of being able to identify a file version even if someone isolated from the context it has been delivered in. I am talking about source files themselves, not about generated javadoc. As long as the file is part of an archive file or contained in an extracted archive file directory structure, the version of the archive corresponds to a tag and that is enough to know. But if someone copies a file form there and isolates it from the rest of the file set, the Id still tells you exactly what the contents are. Of course only as long as the file itself is not changed. So I like the idea of using Id, but I am open to arguments for dropping it.
