Re: [ubl] Versioning of the IDD spreadsheets

[roberto@javest.com]

Hello Ken,
yes it could be better,
on that time I used an automatic updated date as the date requirement was
for people working on a printed template, for a manual translation.
It was like a print date, not strictly a version date.

It is also possible I didn't understood completely the original JPLSC
requirements.

Regards

Roberto
