Shadow-Developer mailing list
This mailing list is intended only for the technical -- for those who wish to know more than anyone wants to know about the inner workings of the Shadow software family. If you wish to read or write to the Shadow databases, for instance, heres the place to talk to others doing it.

Shadow database record format (version 1.4.4 and on)
Shadow database header record format (version 1.4.4 and on)
If you wish to read the records in the Shadow databases, here are the two main structures you need. There are rules to follow which I'll post later.. the first record is always the header record. other records can be of any type (though currently only normal item records are allowed) Remember, if you're working on a conduit be sure to use a pragma to set the boundary spacing and packing.

Shadow XML specification
If you wish to read or write Shadow Desktop XML files (produced by the conduit), you'll want to read this.

Shadow DTD XML file
You may need this; thank Marceusz for generating it!
