Is there a semantic description of gramps data.xml?

Question

I would like write data (export from my program) to gramps data.xml but i don't understand the semantic of gramps export format. For example:

(DTD is known)

My guess based on gramps example:

(Caveat: I'm not a Gramps user, and this is the first time I've looked at it.) Gramps has some pretty thorough documentation, but it doesn't seem to describe the XML format clearly. The XML looks like a dump of the internal database, and that's probably where to start. For example, under Table Objects it notes that times are in the python time.time() format, which counts fractional seconds since the "epoch", which is 1970/01/01 00:00:00 on my Windows PC. — AndyW, Commented Dec 13, 2016 at 9:18

One idea is to view how Gramps writes its own XML file

Another is to join the Gramps developers mailing list and ask.

I don't believe many of the developers are here
