> Hello everybody.
> 
> 
> I'm glad to announce the first stable milestone release of the core GEDCOM X specification set (http://www.gedcomx.org/Specifications.html).
> 
> 
> The purpose of the milestone release is to stabilize the specification set so we can support the production release of the FamilySearch Developer Platform (https://familysearch.org/developers/) and to provide a fixed target on which we can base a focus on filling documentation holes and enhancing the developer toolset.
> 
> 
> The core specification set includes:
> 
> The GEDCOM X Conceptual Model (https://github.com/FamilySearch/gedcomx/blob/master/specifications/conceptual-model-specification.md) specifies an abstract conceptual model for genealogical data, independent of any serialization format.
> The GEDCOM X XML Serialization Format (https://github.com/FamilySearch/gedcomx/blob/master/specifications/xml-format-specification.md) specifies how to represent the conceptual model in XML.
> The GEDCOM X JSON Serialization Format (https://github.com/FamilySearch/gedcomx/blob/master/specifications/json-format-specification.md) specifies how to represent the conceptual model in JSON.
> The GEDCOM X File Format (https://github.com/FamilySearch/gedcomx/blob/master/specifications/file-format-specification.md) specifies how to bundle up genealogical data into a file.
> 
> 
> In addition to the specification set, we've released version 1.0.0.M1 of the GEDCOM X Java (https://github.com/FamilySearch/gedcomx-java) libraries and the GEDCOM 5.5 to GEDCOM X Conversion Utility (https://github.com/FamilySearch/gedcom5-conversion), which you can experiment with to convert GEDCOM 5.5 files to GEDCOM X files.
> 
> 
> For more information about the GEDCOM X project, see the project home page (http://www.gedcomx.org/).
> 
> 
> For more information about the milestone release see the blog post (http://familysearch.github.io/gedcomx/2013/06/04/milestone-1.html).
