Log Standard Version History

The current version:

log-standard-v14.html (02 June 2000)

• Changed the attribute "id" to "turnid" on GC_TURN to bring it in line with the analogous attributes on GC_OPERATION, GC_MESSAGE, GC_EVENT and GC_DATA. Existing logs using the "id" attribute will still be processed normally, but "id" is deprecated in favor of "turnid".
• Removed the DTD for automatic annotation rules file. The rules framework for automatic annotation allows arbitrary attributes in the new: and not: namespaces, which cannot be validated against a DTD.
• Please also note the changes in the recent version 13 below, all of which are backward compatible with previous versions.
