Hello, I'm working with the archived XML files which represent each FIX version. Working with the 4.3 version, I notice that the Fields.xml files contain the following possible two errors: Tag 22: given as name "SecurityIDSource(formerly named: IDSource prior to FIX 4.3)", should this be named SecurityIDSource, with the "formerly" phrase moved to the description part? Tag 536: listed as of type Stirng, should this be String? Tag 588: listed as of type LocalMMktDate, should this be LocalMktDate? I've written code which reads these files to build a formal description which guides parsing, generation, and translation of FIX messages. With the 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2 files there are no problems, but the 4.3 files break the formalism in at least the ways mentioned above, limiting their usefulness for automated parsing even if they are adequate for generating the human-readable manuals.
