Thanks for explaining. Yes, I would think that this would be a good solution.
I would have to go into details of several packages. 
Right now (being on the low-level of information here), I do only think of a 
wrapper schema to conserve originally used formats (like: enhance data with 
meta-information (user/creation date, whatever) and put in the original data 
as a blob. 
As almost all data is acessed via interfaces (is it?), this could be an 
approriate solution. BUT: I have not gone into details here, and this is only 
a very early idea.

Thanks

Regards, Ingo.
