Is there a plan to have a FIXimate page for the 4.3 protocol as was done in the past for 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2(which can be accessed off the Specifications page)? The FIXimate pages are an excellent reference for FIX development and are user friendly and readeable. Currently 4.3 has the DTD posted which contains the same information which is great for an XML-DTD parser but is not as easy to decipher for us humans.
Thanks for any information on this.

FIXimate for FIX version 4.3 is now available via the Specifications page. Thank you to Goldman Sachs for creating this reference utility.
http://www.fixprotocol.org/specification/xml/fiximate-43/index.html
In addition, it is now possible to download a zip file containing all of the files which make up FIXimate so that you could read them offline. A link to this is also on the "Specifications" page.
