Skip to:
We are carrying around an element that has no use anymore, and just confuses people. (https://unicode-org.atlassian.net/browse/CLDR-13931 )
I propose that we remove the following in both main and supplemental files:
in ldml.dtd we have:
we would change the version to be #REQUIRED to be #IMPLIED, and add <!--@DEPRECATED-->
<!--@DEPRECATED-->
We would leave the additional attribute on version unaffected:
Same for bcp47.dtd and ldmlSupplemental.dtd.
The latter has one additional attribute; it would also be unaffected.
Accepted per CLDR TC meeting 2025-03-05
https://unicode-org.atlassian.net/browse/CLDR-14161 is making more changes, so this just carves off part of it.
Dup of https://unicode-org.atlassian.net/browse/CLDR-14161 which is in design - if it’s a priority we can do it, it doens’t have a fixversion.
I recommend we close this one and prioritize the other if we want to do it.
