Hi James,

yes, I understood this so far, but this does not really answer my question. 
Maybe I made my point not clear enough. Just as a background information, I ask 
these questions not because we want to generate CSV format, but we need to read 
this (in the context of EBERO). So from my understanding, it would be valid for 
a registry regarding the -05 version of the document to omit the "fPostalType" 
field at all (since it is not "required") and include two sets of fields, if it 
meets its needs, for example, if both versions are mandatory. This could look 
like the following (modified example from the specs):

   <csvContact:contents>
    ...
      <rdeCsv:csv name="contactPostal">
        <rdeCsv:fields>
          <csvContact:fId parent="true"/>
          <csvContact:fName isLoc="0"/>
          <csvContact:fOrg isLoc="0"/>
          <csvContact:fStreet isLoc="0" index="0"/>
          <csvContact:fStreet isLoc="0" index="1"/>
          <csvContact:fStreet isLoc="0" index="2"/>
          <csvContact:fCity isLoc="0"/>
          <csvContact:fSp isLoc="0"/>
          <csvContact:fPc isLoc="0"/>
          <csvContact:fCc isLoc="0"/>
          <csvContact:fName isLoc="1"/>
          <csvContact:fOrg isLoc="1"/>
          <csvContact:fStreet isLoc="1" index="0"/>
          <csvContact:fStreet isLoc="1" index="1"/>
          <csvContact:fStreet isLoc="1" index="2"/>
          <csvContact:fCity isLoc="1"/>
          <csvContact:fSp isLoc="1"/>
          <csvContact:fPc isLoc="1"/>
          <csvContact:fCc isLoc="1"/>
        </rdeCsv:fields>
        <rdeCsv:files>
          <rdeCsv:file
            cksum="02CC2504">
            contactPostal-YYYYMMDD.csv
          </rdeCsv:file>
        </rdeCsv:files>
      </rdeCsv:csv>
    ...
    </csvRegistrar:contents>

Do you agree?
