Differences between release 02/04/2014 (CSD09 AN 3.0) and 16/01/2014 (CSD08 AN 3.0)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release contains a number of modifications discussed by the group in the months of February and March 2014, and in particular a whole new doctrine for ids in Akoma Ntoso. In particular:
· Core attributes originalId and currentId have been finally understood to refer to work-level identification (and thus permanent and invariable) and expression-level identification (and thus semantically linked to the text of the expression) respectively. For this reason, they have been renamed wId and eId respectively.
· Sections 7.3, 7.4 and 7.5 of this release notes have been considerably revised and rewritten in terms on work-level ids, expression-level ids, and the concept of master expression has been introduced.
· The docContainerType used by elements such as component and attachment, has been added basic hierarchy elements such as num, heading and subheading, to allow hosting documents to introduce properly any hosted components and attachments with introductory text and heading.
· A new element, FRBRmasterExpression, has been added in the FRBRExpression block to specify the URI of the Master Expression if this expression is not the master expression. The lack of the href attribute implies that no master expression exist (e.g., for multi-lingual expression where no individual expression can be considered more important than the others), so that a UR-expression needs to be specified in the refersTo attribute, one virtual expression whose eIds will be considered as the wIds of all other expressions.
· Element renumberingInfo, introduced in CSD05 within temporalData, has been renamed mapping and placed inside a mappings element inside analysis, to emphasize the fact that changes in ids do not happen only when a renumbering occurs, but also whenever this expression is not the master expression of the document, i.e., whenever eIds and wIds diverge. Attributes have not changed.
· A new element previous has been added within element textualMod for identifying the location and id of the element that was modified since the previous expression. Although this can be used for any modified element, it is strictly necessary only for renumbering, to identify the structure that has been renumbered.
· Attribute time (esp. in the recordTime element) how accepts both time data as well as dateTime data.
· Element listConclusion has been renamed listWrap to create a parallel with elements intro/listIntroduction and wrap/listWrap.
