David Honey commented on OSLCCCM-14:
------------------------------------

We might want to distinguish between soft-delete (archive) where the desired behaviour is to fully preserve the provenance-related links between configurations, and a hard delete where leaving such links unchanged results in dangling references and disjoint provenance graphs.

> When a baseline is deleted, should existing baselines derived from the deleted one have their oslc_config:previousBaseline property updated to point to the previousBaseline of the one being deleted, to maintain the provenance chain? Or would this break things like digital signatures?
