QAEDA.ORG Questioning Accepted Ethics, Dogma & Authority

Publication history

Change the conclusion when the evidence changes. Keep the trail.

This is a public release history of material site and editorial-system changes. It complements the claim correction ledger: release history explains what the publication changed; claim history explains what QAEDA changed its mind about.

Scope

Material changes, not every edit.

Typos, routine content cleanup, and protected working-memory details are omitted. For factual reversals or attribution corrections, use Claims & Corrections.

  1. v3.4.0

    Worked governance case studies

    Added six hypothetical/composite case studies that apply the ten QAEDA Decision Tests without numeric scoring, publish test-by-test findings and revision conditions, and connect examples back to arguments, claims, positions, essays, and reading paths.
