- Introduced the ImageTilingServiceEndpoint class for tiled high-resolution image delivery, including deep-zoom and transformation capabilities, with multilingual descriptions and structured aliases.
- Archived the ID class as a backwards-compatible alias for Identifier, marking it as deprecated to enforce the use of the canonical Identifier model.
- Replaced deprecated slot 'broader_type' with 'has_or_had_hypernym' in MuseumType, OrganizationBranch, and ResearchOrganizationType schemas, ensuring all references are updated accordingly.
- Removed obsolete slots: 'binding_description', 'binding_type', 'borrower', 'borrower_contact', 'bounding_box', 'branch_description', 'branch_type', and 'taxonomic_rank', archiving them for future reference.
- Introduced new generic slots: 'has_or_had_contact_point', 'has_or_had_geographic_extent', and 'has_or_had_rank' to standardize contact and spatial information, aligning with RiC-O naming conventions.
- Updated slot_fixes.yaml to reflect migration status and ensure immutability of revision entries.
- Enhanced documentation and examples for new slots to facilitate understanding and usage.
