Changelog · the Phosra product

What shipped, release by release.

Features, improvements, and fixes for the Phosra product — the OCSS reference implementation. These are softwarereleases, versioned with ordinary SemVer. This is the product's version line, not the standard's: OCSS itself is a pre-release IETF Internet-Draft (Draft 4), not yet ratified — there is no “OCSS v1.0.”

Every release, in the order it shipped.

Each entry is a tagged software release of the reference implementation — what changed, why it matters, and the headline items. Breaking changes are called out explicitly so an integrator can read the line at a glance.

Honest by design

A product release isn't a standards ratification.

Phosra ships software on a normal release cadence, so the product carries a SemVer number like any other codebase. The OCSS standard does not: it is an individual IETF Internet-Draft — Draft 4, pre-release, not ratified and not a standards-body publication. A new product version never means the standard advanced, and you will never see an “OCSS v1.0” minted here.

Phosra is OCSS's reference implementer and one accredited network on it — building toward OCSS Certified, a status earned from the conformance suite and never self-issued. The canonical spec and rule registry live at openchildsafety.com, not here.
