EAF 3.0 file format support #29

Closed dopefishh closed 3 years ago

dopefishh commented 4 years ago

Currently only 2.7 and 2.8 are officially supported and a warning is given when another version is imported.

The scheme is available here: http://www.mpi.nl/tools/elan/EAFv3.0.xsd

A human readable explanation is available here: https://www.mpi.nl/tools/elan/EAF_Annotation_Format_3.0_and_ELAN.pdf

It should be added to the supported list after checking and implementing the differences in spec.

I don't know much about the EAF format. But the changelog in the schema sounds like not too much has changed:

VERSION 3.0 DATE December 2016

added two referential link elements, CROSS_REF_LINK and GROUP_REF_LINK, contained in sets of such elements, REF_LINK_SET.

Those advanced reference options weren't supported previously either so we can safely parse 3.0 I guess.
