California Redlining ExamplesUpdated Grant Vergottini 10/24/2012
Akoma Ntoso Modifications • Active Changes • Changes to be made in another document • Passive Changes • Changes within a document relative to prior version • Changes within a document relative to prior version reflecting execution of active changes from another document (per Fabio’s explanation)
California Redlining • Similar to change tracking in MS Word • But changes shown are not literal • Information is encoded in the meaning of changes • Two different contexts for the changes • Relative to the prior version of the bill (passive mods) • Relative to the law (informative mods – my definition)
Redlining vs. Passive Mods • Redlining may reflect underlying passive mods • Redlining need not literally represent passive changes • Redlining may represent forms of changes other than passive mods. • Redlining showing changes relative to the law within active changes can be considered informative (??) redlining
Version One of a Bill That Section 9 of Article IV thereof is amended to read: SEC. 9. A statute shall embrace but one subject, which shall be expressed in its title. If a statute embraces a subject not expressed in its title, only the part not expressed is void. A statute A statutemay not be amended by reference to its title. A section of a statute may not be amended unless the section is re-enacted as amended. Active Modification Breaking into two paragraphs Redlining is showing the effect of the proposed legislation – these are neither active nor passive mods. It’s informative only.

Joining two paragraphs and then splitting into two paragraphs lower down Version Two of a Bill Section numbering is being added due to the addition of a second section – entire num is added The net effect of the first section relative to existing law is no longer apparent.

Redlining Issues • Split Merge paragraphs • Solution provided I believe? • Redlining relative to a source other than prior version • Don’t model informative redlining as passive mods • Complex (non XML conformant redlining) • ??? Rely on change tracking intrinsic to editor + lots of custom code.
