Publication Log
The publication log is a frequently updated spreadsheet which lists the FDD short and long name, number, HTML and XML URLs along with the initial publication date. This is not exactly the same as a change log because it does not record every time an edit is made to an existing FDD because small adjustments are made all the time. Major changes are marked in the “Last significant FDD update” field in the upper right corner of each FDD. Instead, the Publication Log serves as a record for each new FDD added to the website starting from June 2022.
