Friends, I took the liberty to post the message cited below to the Genealogy XML list. In my opinion, that list should always be informed about this kind of topic, as it includes most of the planet's expertise on genealogy and XML. I do hope that some of you already are on that list; in any case, some of you might want to post there about where to get the GRAMPS XML spec. > ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- > > Subject: GRAMPS XML - future standard? > Date: Friday 24.
