Hi Susanne,

happy New Year 2013!

Since the attribute "id" is not really needed for the purpose of
referencing an IM list entry from a <line> within a railML file, I
prefer to leave it out. The question is if the user is really interested
in the history of the entry i.e. which name did the IM had before.
Because that seems to be the only reason why we introduced that "id"
attribute first.
To make the structure a little bit slimmer, I suggest the following layout:
<infrastructureManagerCodes xmlns="http://www.railml.org/lists">
<infrastructureManager code="ThE">
<name>Thüringer Eisenbahn GmbH</name>
<validity begin="2001-08-01" />
<remarks />
</infrastructureManager>
...
</infrastructureManagerCodes>
Any comments appreciated...
Regards
