Version history of the XML Gold Book

Releases

2008-02-28: Release 1.1.2. Before a planned major update we have decided to publish a minor bugfix release. It contains fixes of several errors in the content and in the chemistry indexes. Also few obsolete indexes were removed and the source information for PAC articles were updated.

2007-07-12: Release 1.1.1. In this release one error was fixed (1) and the incremental search usability was improved (thanks to Robert M. Hanson).

2006-12-11: Release 1.1.0. In this release three errors were fixed (1, 2, 3). The page of each entry now features links to a printer friendly version and a page containing history of the term. RSS feed was created that will notify users about new releases of the Gold Book.

2006-09-29: Release 1.0.0. First release published after the review and approval of both IUPAC committees involved (CPEP and ICTNS).

Preview releases

2006-09-13: Fifth (and last) preview release (0.5.0). This release contains an updated "about" section and some minor changes in other parts of the site. It is the last preview release before the site will be moved onto the IUPAC website and release 1.0.0 will be made.

2006-09-11: First revision of the fourth public preview release (0.4.1). In this release several minor fixes were introduced throughout the Gold Book. This release also introduces InChIs for all the chemical structures as meta-data inside each entry.

2006-09-01: Fourth public preview release (0.4.0). This release was focused on cleanup of problems that arose during the review process. Most importantly, rendering of symbols of vector quantities was fixed. Also several changes were made throughout the publication, improving usability and consistency.

2006-05-19: Third public preview release (0.3.0). In this release, all new entries submitted by Aubrey Jenkins were added (242 items), sorting of the entries was fixed to match that of the printed version, the HTML code was slightly revised to improve readability and some minor problems were fixed.

2006-04-29: Second public preview release (0.2.0). Almost one-third of the entries were updated from the first preliminary public release. These were mainly small fixes (typically in missing punctuation), but there were also many more serious problems such as missing reactions or formulas. Overall the Gold Book should be now prepared for public review.

2005-05-27: Minor fixes (0.1.1).

2005-03-17: First public preview release (0.1.0).
