358 358  In version 2.0 of SDMX there is a recommendation to use the time format attribute to gives additional information on the way time is represented in the message. Following an appraisal of its usefulness this is no longer required. However, it is still possible, if required , to include the time format attribute in SDMX-ML.

407 407  It has been possible since SDMX 2.0 for a Component to specify a representation of a time span. Depending on the format of the data message, this resulted in either an element with 2 XML attributes for holding the start time and the duration or two separate XML attributes based on the underlying Component identifier. For example, if REF_PERIOD were given a representation of time span, then in the Compact data format, it would be represented by two XML attributes; REF_PERIODStartTime (holding the start) and REF_PERIOD (holding the duration). If a new simple type is introduced in the SDMX schemas that can hold ISO 8601 time intervals, then this will no longer be necessary. What was represented as this:
408 408  
409 -> <Series REF_PERIODStartTime="2000-01-01T00:00:00" REF_PERIOD="P2M"/>

427 427  Fundamental to processing a time value parameter in a query message is understanding that all time periods should be handled as a distinct range of time. Since the time parameter in the query is paired with an operator, this also effectively represents a distinct range of time. Therefore, a system processing the query must simply match the data where the time period for requested parameter is encompassed by the time period resulting from value of the query parameter. The following table details how the operators should be interpreted for any time period provided as a parameter.

437 437  Reporting Time Periods as query parameters are handled like this: any data within the bounds of the reporting period for the year is matched, regardless of the actual start day of the reporting year. In addition, data reported against a normal calendar period is matched if it falls within the bounds of the time parameter based on a reporting year start day of January 1. When determining whether another reporting period falls within the bounds of a report period query parameter, one will have to take into account the actual time period to compare weeks and days to higher order report periods. This will be demonstrated in the examples to follow.

478 478  Versioning operates at the level of versionable and maintainable objects in the SDMX information model. Within the SDMX Structure and MetadataSet messages, there is a well-defined pattern for artefact versioning and referencing. The artefact identifiers are qualified by their version numbers – that is, an object with an Agency of "A", and ID of "X" and a version of "1.0.0" is a different object than one with an Agency of "A", an ID of "X", and a version of "1.1.0".

In addition, the "isFinal" property is removed from //MaintainableArtefact//. According to the legacy versioning, any artefact defined without a version is equivalent to following the legacy versioning, thus having version ‘1.0’.
