Well done, Jim, yes we did talk about an "approved" version in:

   http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/codelist/200705/msg00002.html

Right ... and that is what was done as we see the requirements in the 
same folder as the specification.

So, I think the directories for the specific numbered versions and 
their drafts is all correct, and that all that is missing is a new 
server-side redirect.  Where I said:

... which I am now assuming is the latest work approved by the 
committee, we will also have a server-side redirect to the latest 
OASIS standard version:

     /codelist/approved/genericode

Mary, have I interpreted the distinction correctly between these two redirects?

We end up having distinctive base directories such as:

     /codelist/cd-genericode-1.0/...
     /codelist/cd2-genericode-1.0/...
     /codelist/cs-genericode-1.0/...
     /codelist/genericode-1.0/...
     /codelist/cd-genericode-2.0/...
     /codelist/cd2-genericode-2.0/...

And at some point in the future while working on 2.0 we would have 
the following redirects:

     /codelist/genericode/         (pointing to /codelist/cd2-genericode-2.0/)
     /codelist/approved/genericode (pointing to /codelist/genericode-1.0/)

This is consistent with what we have now:  /codelist/genericode is 
pointing to /codelist/cd-genericode-1.0/ and there is no 
/codelist/approved/genericode version at this time.

And I see the committee draft links are using the above server 
redirects under the titles of "Latest Version" and "Latest Approved 
Version", so Tony has followed the minutes.

Thanks Jim for finding that for us.
