Precedence and Versioning Operating Rules

Zachary C. Nickens

This note defines publication rules for durable precedence.

Rules

  1. Each published paper version is immutable.
  2. New revisions are published as new slugs with explicit versions.
  3. External references should cite specific versions.
  4. Git history and publication timestamps are part of the precedence record.

Current Strategy

Current paper URLs include a version suffix (for example -v0-1-0). Future versions will be added as new slugs rather than overwritten.
