Re: proposed ADL 1.5 simplification

[Ian McNicoll <Ian.McNicoll@oceaninformatics.com>]

Hi David,

I agree. I think the default behaviour in AE would be switchable as per user preference. i.e. save in adl 1.4 or 1.5. The file extensions will be different in any case -  .adls and .adlf.

the minimal change to any archetype when migrating to 1.5.

We should avoid this kind of automatic changes. A user might not expect that his 1.4 ADL code is changed to a different syntax without at least a warning, since it can have an impact on his system implementation. As a typical example, when you open a .DOC document with Microsoft Word 2007/2010, it will never change it to .DOCX automatically.
