Dear all,
Following an issue [1] and presentation at the conference [2] railML.org
is to change a deprecation policy for railML3. Please answer if you have
anything against or anything is missing.
Current state: In order to remove an element or attribute we currently
need an intermediate minor version of railML where we deprecate this
atttribute or element.
railML's suggestion:
• Changes from one minor version to the next will be allowed without a
deprecation phase. This allows changes that cannot have a deprecation
phase, such as:
o Renaming elements, attributes or enumeration values
o Changing the minOccurs or maxOccurs of an element
o Changing the use of an attribute (optional or mandatory)
o Changing between xs:sequence, xs:choice and xs:all
• Remodelling may also be done without including both the old and new
implementation in the new version, reducing the complexity.
• Removals that are not replaced by something new may still have a
deprecation phase.

Dear railML team,
If it is well documented, there is nothing to be said against it in our
opinion.
Thank you an best regards.
