Document change policy
Versioning of this document is defined based on three parts that are incremented as follows:
- The first part is incremented when non-backward-compatible changes are performed.
- The second part is incremented when the changes impact one of the schemas.
- The third part is incremented when the changes impact only the documentation (for example, a correction in an explanation or of a typo).
Conventions used
When the document references an XML element within the text, this element is written in a monospace font and is denoted by the use of angle brackets (e.g. <Content>).
Other references to the same word may refer to the Nagra CMS interpretation of this word, for this example, where the word is written in normal text font “Content” describes all the editorial and eventually technical information of a movie itself.
In the same way, attribute names and filenames are also written in a monospace font.
