BuildingSync Version 2.2.0 does not introduce any breaking changes. Version 2.2.0 adds new elements required for a
complete audit report for ASHRAE Standard 211 Level 2. This version also introduces references to the
gbXML schema. See the documentation here for more information
about this integration with gbXML.

Note that some elements are beginning to be deprecated. To ensure future conformance to the schema, these elements
should be updated to their alternative names:
