Changes

• Approving a protocol version whose protocol was edited after the version was submitted is now refused immediately, with the message "Version is stale: the protocol was edited after this version was submitted". Previously the request could stay unanswered.
• State conflicts when publishing a version (version already decided, protocol edited in the meantime) are returned immediately as conflicts, with no automatic retry.
• An administrator or supervisor can reject their own pending version from the Versions tab. A team with no second approver can therefore discard a stale version and prepare a new one.

Known limitations

• A stale version cannot be approved: reject it, then prepare a new version from the protocol's current content.
• Versions already approved are not modified.
