Endurant is now concrete rather than abstract

In the FuGE Milestone 3 (FM3) implementation of SyMBA, the Endurant class was abstract, and concrete sub-classes were made that mirrored the FuGE-OM structure of concrete implementations of Identifiable. However, it quickly became clear that this multitude of SyMBA Endurant implementations were unnecessary. Therefore, the opportunity of upgrading to FuGE Version 1 (FV1) meant a good chance to solve this situation.

Therefore, with the FV1 version of SyMBA, there is now only one Endurant class. It is still Describable, but it is concrete and all Identifiable classes contain a reference to this concrete class. It is a much simpler, cleaner system.

Implications for LSIDs

This means that all new LSIDs generated within SyMBA for the Endurant.identifier attribute will have a namespace of "Endurant" rather than the name of the concrete implementation of Endurant that was present in FM3. Nothing in the core will break if you still use the old LSIDs in the new SyMBA, however you may have to modify how the LSID resolver works to cope with the old-style LSID namespaces.
