Version number and date

The number has the form edition.change. The edition (first number) changes only with a backward-incompatible change to the layout of the dataset file – a field removed or its meaning changed; the change (second number) counts content changes within the edition. The date and the number change only when the content of the dataset changes (SHA-256 hash of the content without the version fields); adding a field does not change the edition. Versions up to 2.16 were reconstructed from the history of the dataset file – the version date is the day the change was saved.

Content hash (SHA-256), version 2.18: d00080fd772b1e4fcb034579b22e6b067ed8eb3cadc5f5951746391e3eefb3ab
