I could possibly add a 'This paper has been updated' post in the thread. Hmm..........

In the first post, you could have links to the postid of the first post after each update or to the post in which you state it has been updated to blahblah. For example:

Sound about right? Of course you'd have to worry about post referencing in the event a post gets deleted, but that "aint nothing but a *thang*" because you could set the system up in such a way that the first post after a whitepaper gets updated is the bot telling everyone that the whitepaper is updated... no referencing problems, unless the bot says something inappropriate
