Summary: Add a version field to dump files
Product: XML Snapshots
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: General
AssignedTo: ar...@wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: hippietr...@yahoo.com
CC: tf...@wikimedia.org
>From time to time the XML format of the dump files has changed. For instance
<redirect> was not in the original format and I think also <restrictions> was
not there.
If the header of the dump files had provided a version I could've handled
redirect tags efficiently with a fallback to parsing the text field for older
versions.
Since the dump file format is sure to change again in the future a version
field would make much sense.
