Are there previews of operational releases?
Early on, we anticipated that there would be requests to incorporate new components for common requirements or from other standards. In most cases, these were either unknown at the time the Global JXDM was built, or we have not yet had the time to study them. We intend to provide information regarding such efforts to add new content without frequently publishing new releases. To provide a reasonable means of transition, we have established the capability for users to preview the next release while it is still in development. Once an official release has been published, it will be frozen and permanently available under www.it.ojp.gov/jxdm. Some time after this, the latest developmental version of the next release will be available to preview with the Schema Subset Generator Tool (SSGT). Refer to What is the Global JXDM Schema Subset Generation Tool? for more information. For example, after version 3.X has been released, version 3.X.1alpha1 will eventually become available in the SSGT. N
