The IFRS Foundation has today published IFRS Taxonomy 2021—Proposed Update 2 Technology Update.

The proposed changes include:
- XBRL Specifications updates [Data Type Registry 1.1 and Transformation Registry 4];
- Use of HTTPS (rather than HTTP) addresses for the IFRS Taxonomy XBRL files;
- Changes to reference URI links;
- Additional entry points for the IFRS Taxonomy; and
- Changes to titles for definition linkbase roles.
