Currently we don't maintain releases for mapping data; we only have the latest BNF to dm+d mapping at any time.

This could cause issues when converting old BNF codelists to dm+d, if BNF codes are removed from the mapping, or change.

Might any of these proposed developments from BSA potentially be helpful?

Or do we want to flag this maintenance of historical codes for their development?

@inglesp I have done some further investigation into the BNF/dm+d mappings and added some notes to the end of the document, plus some examples of mapping changes I found.

This was a lot tricker, more confusing and timeconsuming than I'd expected or planned for it to be, and I'm not sure I've summarised it very well.
