Rails - Feb 2006 - acts_as_versioned and acts_as_taggable on same model?

I am trying to use acts_as_versioned and acts_as_taggable (plugin) on  
the exact same model.  Has anyone successfuly done this?  I think  
what I need to do is make model_versions acts_as_taggable instead of  
my main model.  Anyone have any other suggestions or any suggestions  
how to do this?

What problems are you having?  If you want acts_as_taggable on both
your versioned and your regular model, do this:

class Foo << AR::Base
  acts_as_versioned do
    def self.included(base)
      base.acts_as_taggable
    end
  end
end

The problem is that when I do:

n = Note.find(1)
n.tag_with("Introduction, XML, HTTP")
n.tags

n.tags results in [] because n.tags checks note_versions and not note  
model which tag_with associates the tags to.

So I need n.tags to check for tags on notes and not note_versions.

Any clue how I would do this?
