Syndication Workgroup Documents

This is a landing page for the working drafts as well as proposed and final specifications from the Syndication Workgroup.

Syndication Zip File

The changes from Wednesday meeting have been integrated:
1. The version attribute has been added to the root node. It is optional, and a
decimal.
2. The versionTimestamp is fixed and optional.
3. The enumerations have been merged with RESO and are in the RETCommons folder.
Most common location is the Features.xsd primarily, RETSCommons.xsd secondarily.
4. Custom data type to validate times added to Primitives.xsd. Validates against
times of the format HH:MM PM or HH:MM AM, with legitimate hour and minute values.
(Thanks Paul Stusiak for the regex)
5. Retsids have been added to some of the enums. This work is ongoing, and lower
priority than the other stuff.

To see the most friendly view of the enum values, please open tabview.html in
your browser. It has been tested in Firefox, Opera, and Safari. It should also
work in IE.
Ensure tabview.html is saved to the same location as the rets.js. Also, you
must have internet connectivity.

Note that this includes all the enums from the RESO schemas, not just the ones
used by Syndication. The relevant syndication enums are:

ApplianceEnum
ArchitecturalStyleEnum
CoolingSystemEnum
ExteriorFinishEnum
FlooringMaterialEnum
FuelEnum
HeatingSystemEnum
ParkingEnum
RoofMaterialEnum
RoomCategoryEnum
ViewEnum

Note: Any documentation work will be happily accepted! :-)

To see the old enumerations (before merge with RESO), please see the included
OldEnums.txt.
