https://govschema.org/updates What's shipped on the GovSchema standard, registry, and site — in order. en https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-04-registry-browser-machine-catalog-and-a-reference-page-for-every-schema Sat, 04 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT registry is now a searchable, faceted index — filter by jurisdiction, category, and status, with the full filter state in the URL. Every published schema id resolves to a generated reference page at registry/{id} (field reference, verification record, version history, related schemas), and agents get a machine-readable catalog at registry/index.json.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-02-ds-82-worked-example-independently-re-verified-advances-to-v200 Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT DS-82 worked example — the schema behind this site's interview demo — has been independently re-verified against the live travel.state.gov source and the current fillable Form DS-82, under the adopted manual-source-review-v1 practice. The review found real drift (an eligibility-gate condition and the sex-marker enum), so the document advances with a MAJOR version bump to 2.0.0, targets spec v0.3, and its lifecycle status moves to verified. See the schema's own verification record for the method, date, and reviewer.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-02-registry-mirror-advances-to-spec-v01v03 Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT v0.1, v0.2, v0.3) so every entry's $schema URL actually resolves. All three lines are additive per VERSIONING.md, so nothing in the existing worked example changed at the time — the DS-82 worked example and the interview demo still targeted spec v0.1, until the independent re-verification above.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-02-about-community-and-updates-published Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT About explains who publishes the standard and how the specification changes; Community explains how to propose or improve a schema; and this page is the project's changelog, with an RSS feed so you don't have to check back manually.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-02-site-rebuilt-around-the-specification Thu, 02 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT specification hub links its three chapters, alongside the registry, verification, and docs. The homepage is shorter, and the schema-driven interview moved to its own demo page.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-01-live-interview-demo Wed, 01 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT interview demo drives a conversation against the DS-82 passport-renewal schema exactly as published in the registry, so you can watch a schema being consumed, not just read about it.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-01-verification-stated-up-front Wed, 01 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT how verification works.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-01-specification-reaches-v03 Wed, 01 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT spec v0.1 — it has since advanced to v0.3 (see above); see spec/v0.3 in the open repository for the current specification text.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-07-01-registry-listing-becomes-self-updating Wed, 01 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT The registry page is now generated directly from the published schema files instead of a hand-maintained list, so it can't drift out of sync with what the registry actually contains.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-06-30-specification-reaches-v02 Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT edition axis was added for forms that reissue every tax or award year — like an annual tax return — so a new year is modeled as a sibling edition, not a breaking version bump. See GSP-0005.]]> https://govschema.org/updates https://govschema.org/updates#2026-06-30-specification-v01-accepted-first-schemas-published Tue, 30 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT GSP-0001, and the first reference schemas were published against it.]]>
