- Changelog XML Schema
- Posted by Gazza on March 7th, 2006
Just tinkering with the idea of using XML to structure a changelog file,
and wondered if there were any existing schema for such a job.
Google isn't particularly heplful due to the nature of the query -
changes to unrelated XML schema appear, rather than an a 'standard' (for
XML) to structure a changelog.
Anyone know where I might find one?

Guess not.
As an example of what I was after:
<changelog>
<application>Gazza's Widgit</application>
<entries>
<entry date="2006-03-07">
<version>1.0</version>
<changes>
<change type="add">Details of change</change>
<change type="improve">Details of change</change>
<change type="bugfix">Details of change</change>
</changes>
</entry>
<entry date="2006-03-08">
<version>1.1</version>
<changes>
<change type="remove">Details of change</change>
<change type="other">Details of change</change>
<change>Details of change</change>
</changes>
</entry>
</entries>
</changelog>
Obviously some attributes/elements may be optional, some required. Any
suggestions for improvement?

Not quite what you asked for, but have a look at:
http://microformats.org/
and:
http://www.asp-shareware.org/pad/
The latter, specially, might be adaptable to do what you suggest.

Thanks Andy. Can't adapt the latter, but it has given me a couple of
things to think about including. I'm really suprised I can't find any
existing schema that covers a popular item on software websites. Oh
well, a good excuse to brush up on my XML/XSLT/etc
)

Could you approach the "owners" to propose a modification/ upgrade?
