Change Management / Data Versioning

<ghurlbot> Issue 418 Change Management / Data Versioning (by apowers313)

Signals

<ghurlbot> Issue 410 Represent Privacy Signals like GPC, ADPC, and others (by coolharsh55)

HarshPandit: This is a topic about how we can represent signals using DPVCG concepts, as this is something relevant to current developments e.g. GPC is on standardisation track at W3C; and GDPR Article 88b has proposed consent manager which would require representation of these. Will be working on these for the next release.
