I don't think so. Do we really need to document that "Import on 1.16 no
longer breaks with 1.18 export format"? It's not as if I had added those
values.
And do we have some system in place to avoid such
problems
(import/export incompatibilities) to come up again?
As commented in the change, the Import format was rewritten in 1.17, so
I don't think it explodes on unrecognized tags from that version on.
John, you can find the XSD of the export format in:
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/gitweb?p=mediawiki/core.git;a=blob;f=docs/ex…
(last version is 0.8). As for how they are really used, I think you will
have
to read the export code.
