DIV {DIVORCE}: = An event of dissolving a marriage through civil action.
Anyway, it becomes interesting in the EVENT_DETAIL section which has
However, for Marriage event, it is not used!
There is a Description field in GRAMPS, but that uses something else: it is a text description not exported to GRAMPS, that on import is automatically filled up (eg Marriage of Tarzan, Joe and Doe, Jane)
'''Update''': The above might be an error in the coding. TYPE is used for the description in some of the other events. I find this highly confusing. I would put description always in a note. Eg:
NOTE DESCRIPTION:text which GRAMPS can export and import. I need to talk to Don about this.
== Proposal ==
The general built in solution would be the following:
=== 5 6 relationship types ===GRAMPS is given 5 6 standard relationship types, as opposed to the present four:
#'''Married''' : any religeous union
#'''Civil Marriage''': a civil legal union with highest legal bonding between husband and wife#'''Civil Union''': any all other civil legal union
#'''Cohabitation''': people living together without religeous or legal union, but with an implied relationship of mutual love.
#'''Unmarried''': a family with no bond whatsoever (for bastard children, ...) or a family living together without a mutual love.
#'''Unknown''' : Unknown
This means one two new custom type is types are added to make help distinguish the difference between Unmarried living together and Unmarried living apartmeaning of unmarried, as well as the civil unions which are not civil marriage.
=== Relationship -- standard event coupling ===
