The model is now frozen; version is 2020-02-16.

All the next tasks should be based on this version.

Please review the change log file for the changes and review the model for any errors.

Hilde will use now the master file DDI-CDI_PublicReviewRelease_2020-02-16.eap to update the documentation. Please notice that it is not possible to make any changes to the model while this task.
I can make only very urgent changes after this step.
Then, I can also include diagram folders into the master EA file, if people provide me copies of their EA files.

The 2020-02-16 files are available at: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1iy2OpMkMfTx6xuw7BubZIPHxvFVsMGKZ

I put now following model identification into the model itself as constants (DDICDI-DataTypes-ModelIdentification):

*        acronym : String [1] = DDI-CDI

*        majorVersion : Integer [1] = 0

*        minorVersion : Integer [1] = 5

*        subtitle : String [1] = Public Review Release 2020-03

*        title : String [1] = DDI - Cross-Domain Integration

*        uri : String [1] = http://ddialliance.org/Specification/DDI-CDI/

The URI is used as prefix for the UUIDs in the Canonical XMI.

I didn't have time enough to simplify the various string types.

I run into an EA issue regarding assigning types to attributes. I wanted to assign a string instead of ValueString to some attributes. EA shows the change, but the exported XMI doesn't. Only the search type dialog shows in some vague way that the type is not changed. It is necessary to delete the attribute, to create a new one, and to assign a string. I will explore the issue more later. It seems to be only related to the string type.
