aseXML schema versions are released as part of a managed release process. The process involves:
- Submission of a Schema Change Proposal to the ASWG
- Review of the proposal and development of a draft schema
- Approval of the Draft Schema by the ASWG
- Release of the Draft Schema for review and testing
- Modification and re-release of the Draft Schema as required
- Approval of the Final Schema by the ASWG and AEMO
- Release and publishing of the Final Schema
The process is an eight week cycle with defined milestones, which are determined at least 12 months in advance. The current milestones are:

Schema Changes are initiated and progressed using the aseXML Change Process. The Change Process document and Change Request templates are available as follows:
