> ivy file metadata is lost when an ivy file is delivered since it resolves all constraint rules into specific revision numbers for publishing.  This metadata should be retained by allowing a new attribute on the dependency tag, perhaps called "original".  Then deliver can resolve all constraint rules to place in the rev attribute but retain the original rule in the original attribute.
> I am not exactly sure if this is how it should be implemented but it shows the idea.  Here is another explanation:
> > keep two versions 
> > information per dependency when publishing to the repository : the 
> > original version constraint, and the version that was used when the 
> > module was published.
