The final version is not due for completion until the 20/04/09 and multiple versions may be uploaded in between these dates.
The paper aims to prove the thesis that it would be more effective to have a separate file for each individual, family, event or group, using an OPC package encapsulating XML and any other (source) files relating to that object – rather than having one GEDCOM file for the whole database that links to external files.
This paper is due to be presented at the 5th Annual Information Technology Research Conference, University of Bournemouth, England.
