 Old Versions of DDEX Standards
Here you can find the old version of DDEX Standards. DDEX recommends to always implement the latest version but sometimes users require access to an older version (e.g. for debugging or maintaining an implementation based on an older version, or even for planning to upgrade to the latest version).
