8.1: Introductory

As mentioned above in 13.2 missing section, ZGx19 mDP, special rosters supplement the Main Roster. for types of analysis, especially typology, which go beyond its limits and purposes. The structure of these rosters is quite analogous in each case.

Special roster codes are identified by a 3 character prefix, of which the first is Z (identifying the entry as belonging to a special roster) and then two characters that identify the particular special roster in question.

The version code is in the same format as for the Main Roster.
