Version history

Every published version of this article, newest first. Versions are append-only: a correction adds a row, it never rewrites history. Each version below states what changed against the version before it — which fields moved, and which body lines were added or removed.

The content hash is a SHA-256 fingerprint of that version's stored headline and body, computed when the version was written. Two versions with the same hash hold identical text; a changed hash proves the text moved. It is the tamper-evidence check — recompute it against an exported copy of a version and any silent edit shows up as a mismatch.

How we verify a hash — and how you can

Canonicalization: the hashed bytes are the version's stored headline, then the two characters ||, then the version's stored body markdown — UTF-8, SHA-256, lowercase hex. Nothing else is in the input: no normalization, re-wrapping or rendering is applied first, no trailing newline is added, and no other field (including the parent version's id) is mixed in.

Export a version's stored headline and body, join them with the two characters ||, and take the SHA-256 of the UTF-8 bytes. It must equal the hash printed beside that version. In a shell:

printf '%s' "HEADLINE||BODY" | shasum -a 256

    The body text changed; the headline did not. (compared against version 3)

    • The portal marks that time UTC, and it is not: the city's own records contradict the mark, because the plain-English posting time the portal prints for this meeting's agenda states the same clock reading as the machine-readable field that claims to be UTC. The time above is therefore the local wall clock the city published, reproduced without conversion. South Dakota keeps two time zones — Central east of the Missouri River, Mountain west of it — so 605Buzz prints the city's own wall clock rather than converting it for anyone.

    • The city's agenda for this meeting lists 9 numbered items. 605Buzz reproduces 8 of them below, exactly as the city wrote them; the other 1 name a party or a location and are not reproduced here.
    • - 1. 4:00 PM Call to Order
    • - 2. Attendance
    • - 3. Approval Of The Agenda
    • - 4. Approval Of The Minutes
    • - 6. Directors Report • Festival Overview • Labor Day To Memorial Day Numbers • Seats update • Coming Events
    • - 7. Corn Palace Theme Ideas General Discussion about what the Theme for 2027 should be
    • - 8. Executive Session : Motion To Enter Into Executive Session In Accordance With SDCL 1-25-2 \(5\) To Discuss Marketing And Or Pricing Strategies Of A Publicly Owned-Competitive Business
    • - 9. Adjourn
    • 605Buzz reproduces the numbered item lines from that file and nothing else. Lines the city labels Petitioner, Property Owner, Location or Staff Report are not reproduced here, and neither is a street address; the agenda packet is not read at all. Where an item names a person — an official presenting it, or a resident being appointed to something — that name is part of the item the city wrote, and it stands as written. The text is the plain-text rendering the city's own portal returns for that file. Nothing above is a summary, and an item on an agenda is something a body may consider rather than something it did.
